One Pentium 3 chassis and motherboard with 46G IBM HD. Hard drive proves to have flippy floppy heads, machine yet to be tested. Big Blue quality shines through again, I had one of these exact drives go bad a couple of years ago. Picture shows sample from GIS:
Two stainless steel bottle troughs from a bar, slightly dirty. One is just over 3 feet, the other is 2 feet long and both cleaned up nicely for the pic:
Two mountain bikes, one with disc brakes and missing only an inner tube. Fixed and sold within 2 days. The other missing a seat and otherwise complete except some minor tyre issues, saved for stock, probably just awaiting addition of a seat at a later date. It looks like some 14 year-olds rode these just long enough to make them no longer shiny, then left them out in the rain until they were thrown away.
One Apple Laserwriter 8500 for up to A3 paper in good condition except for the fuser. Pic of similar from GIS :
It even came with a with duplex tray which is shown below ready for ebay. Some of the other good parts may get used also.
One Dell Pentium 4 PC case and motherboard, no CPU, memory etc.
Maxtor 91531U3 15GB hard drive. 15482 files found, of which I extracted 6617. These included such entertaining gems as
My Documents/Goals2001.doc My Documents/ProposedCommissionSchedule.doc Recent/Wire Transfer.doc Recent/Resume.doc
Library picture of similar drive from GIS. The drive functions fine.
Seagate Medalist 4321 4.3GB hard drive. 14682 files found of which I extracted 4888. The extensive porn collection included such delicacies as:
My Documents/My Pictures/pics/HILARY.gif My Documents/My Pictures/pics/INTERN.bmp My Documents/My Pictures/pics/FloppyTitsAnimated.gif My Documents/movies/movies/2xfist11.mpeg My Documents/movies/movies/monkeyp.mpe My Documents/movies/movies/nipple_twist.avi My Documents/movies/movies/smoking.avi My Documents/movies/movies/poopin~1.avi
This drive also functions fine despite being pretty old. 2/2 today. These drives will go towards fixing up Pentium 2/3 machines for people.
One radar detector. As yet untested but this could mean I get to drive home faster! Yeah right. Is it more important to get there eventually or get there fast? Answers on a postcard to /dev/null.
