I can deliver anywhere around the city.
thanks

I know that you're trying to do a good thing but I can't see any charity taking a Windows 95 machine, it would be too much hassle for them...

TBH a macine that old is probably better off for the bin as opposed to anywhere else...

I would agree, theres not much you can do with a machine like that. I volunteer for a charity and we got a new machine as way too much hassle with old machines and we need to get the work done all the same.
