    Hey,

    Looking to buy some old computers, of about 700mhz or a bit less possibly, or more even, whatever would be available.

    Anyone know anywhere that sells really cheap computers?

    Or know anyone selling a computer cheap? By cheap I mean cheap, 50-100 euro depending on the spec.

    Thanks

    /Looking to buy PC's in Galway.

    hmm. How many would you be needing and when would you need them?
    I could have a few (hopefully six) about that spec coming available, I usually pull them apart for parts but I might be able to sell em.

    they'd be 700-800mhz Compaq , 128mb/256mb, 10/20gb HD
    No monitors though.

    If you're interested I'll let you know when they come up.

    Yes, I'd still be interested, very much so. Would be interested in 2.

    Thanks, appreciated.

    At this stage, thats worth about a tenner. You might rip someone off in the buy and sell to be honest, but here its a different story :p

    Seriously though, how much?

    I was meant to be buying the above amd rig, but I broke my damn mobile (typical) and have to spend the money on a new one instead....
