    First-come, first-serve. All items must go. After a time some items will go up on EBay at which point I will remove them from this list.

    All items are sold as-is. At last use, they all worked fine, I cannot guarantee that now but will be willing to work with you if something is dead on arrival.

    Items can be rummaged thru and picked up by arrangement (PM or email me); cash and carry only. If I'm out and about I don't mind dropping off particular items if you're willing to buy sight-unseen and you're local.

    If you're not local and are interested, I can ship, but that will require payment even for "free" items. I can take PayPal or check, but checks will have to be cleared for two weeks before I'll ship anything. Sorry, too many scams out there. No refunds on shipping costs.

    I'm willing to part company with this stuff for just about any good offer. I do, however, have a good idea of the retail and "used" value of all of these items, so please serious offers only.

    RCA-jack audio/visual cables. None are shielded or gold-plated. Various combinations of red/white/yellow, yellow-only, red/white to white (mono to stereo).

    Free Philips funcam USB VGA digital cam/webcam. From experience, NOT linux-compatible unless you want to lose all your hair. (VGA means 640x480 resolution.) No driver disk but Windows probably has something for it already in the driver database.

    Various power cords:
    Two-prong, polarized appliance/device power cords, have a "cathedral-window" shaped end that plugs into device (like a rectangle with two corners sanded round). Some of these cables are "pinched" on the same plug area, like channels cut in-between the two holes on either side of the device-end plug.
    Several black and off-white thee-prong grounded computer/device power cords with the three--parallel-flat-prong female end that typically fits into computer power supplies or printers.

    Various device/connectivity cables and items:
    Parallel printer cords, one missing screws.
    Parallel bi-directional cables, male-male and male-female (aka extension cord) with a gender-changer.
    One Belkin 4-port manual Parallel switch (4 inputs, one output).
    Male DB25 (parallel) cable to female DB9 (serial).
    Male-to-female serial extension cable.
    PS/2 extension cables.
    Two PS/2 to Serial keyboard adapters (the round keyboard-style serial plug): one male PS/2 to female serial, one female PS/2 to male serial
    One female PS2 to female DB9 serial (the trapezoidal kind, not the round KB serial)
    Various color PS/2 to USB adapters.
    Several internal IDE cables (40 - and 80-pin), and internal floppy drive cables.
    Several black and gray one-line and two-line phone cords.
    One 5-wire cable with a USB jack at one end, and ethernet jack on the other. Commonly sold with UPS devices made by APC so that they could talk to the computer.
    Two phone jack splitters.
    One in-line phone cable coupler (female to female).
    Several screw-type and push-on type 75-ohm coax cables (ie. for cable TV).

    One Alcatel HomeConnect DSL modem with DSL filter, splitter, and manual. (Like anyone in Broadlands needs this.)

    One PentiumII 266MHz processor, Slot 1 form factor.

    Boxed, like-new Buslogic FlashPoint LT Ultra SCSI PCI card, will include external SCSI cable and internal Ultra-wide cable. Sorry, no terminators....
    LSI U160 Ultra-160 PCI SCSI card.
    U-320 SCSI cables with terminators. Will work on U-160 SCSI cards and drives. One is round, the other flat.

    Sony MDR-Q22 earphones. Clip over the ear style, with changeable blue and silver covers. Barely used. Clean.

    Casio TV-470 Color handheld LCD TV. Still works well, but picture quality isn't like the LCD screens we have nowadays.

    ASUS CUSL2-C ATX motherboard (slots/connectors: PS/2 x2, USB x2, Parallel x1, Serial x1; PCI x6, CNR x1, AGP x1)
    Intel Celeron (FC-PGA) processor, 600MHz, with intel-branded cooling fan/heatsink.
    2 PC133 SDRAM, 256MB each.
    ** Would prefer to sell the above as a single set. It'd make a nice low-end linux machine if you have the rest of the components.

    One peltier-style CPU cooler crazy-glued to a heatsink; specs unknown at this time. Can't find a clip for this, so I can't guarantee this will fit on all processors. Last used on a socket 370 processor and it did a crazy good job at cooling my CPU down... too good, actually. Caveat emptor... please know what you are doing if you buy this. You agree not to hold me responsible for damage caused if used improperly. You may need to do some non-trivial socket-sealing ( http://www.swiftnets.com/socketsealing.htm ) and component protection to prevent condensation corrosion on your processor, motherboard, and possibly video card (not shown in the link above).

    Techno:
    You can also call PC Recycler in Chantilly 800-731-1909. They will take all of that off your hands. We go there on days they are open to the public. However, they will come get your stuff if you have a lot. The pther day we dropped off a repaired, but then busted digi cam, an old radio/CD/Tape player, electirc shaving cleaning receptacle, and misc computer parts.
