[Cialug] Free Stuff

I've found some more stuff that is free for the taking to anyone who has a use for it:

Core 2 Quad Q6600 on an EVGA NVidia 780i SLI motherboard (3 x 16X PCI-e, 1 x 1X PCI-e, 2 x PCI slots; 6 x SATA2; 1 x IDE; 1 x Floppy [yes, it has a floppy controller!])

Sony NEC Optiarc (pick one?) IDE DVD+RW(DL) drive (not sure what the speed is on this one... My guess is 16X.  Also it has a feature called LabelFlash, which similar to LightScribe, though I'm not sure if the media are cross-compatible... I was never able to find any LabelFlash media to try it out)

Linksys wireless-n PCI card

2 x 1GB DDR-400 ECC DIMMs

1 x 256MB Kingston DDR-333 DIMM

1 x 1GB Kingston DDR-333 DIMM

1 x 512MB PNY DDR-333 DIMM

And lastly, I still have a half-height universal 4-post rack on casters (it's actually a cabinet without the front and rear doors).  It has screw hole mounts, so rails that expect a square hole will require those screw hole adapters that used to sell for ridiculous amounts of money.  I have a couple of trays that go with the rack, too, which are good for holding a monitor or keyboard/mouse.

Everything is free for the taking.  I can probably meet you at the makerspace with anything but the rack.  It will need to be picked up at my house, because I don't have access to a large enough vehicle to move it (it's roughly 6' x 3.5' x 2').  It might be able to be disassembled, but I don't think I could pull that off without help.
