Stripping Compaq ProSignia: Want Free Junk?

Twizted · 30-September-04, 09:26 PM

Well I started stripping an old Compaq ProSignia (which is a PITA!! cause its a pure Torx bit assymbled PC spare the one phillips that was holding the Ultra SCSI card in) I had it in the back room for a few years now... and I am throwing alot of old stuff out (I am a packrat thus my house is FULL of stuff..) I am keeping the case but I was wondering if there would be any interest in the internals.. The mobo is not much... its a 486DX... Better stated the mobo belongs in a musem... but anyway.. the PC is from 1992 and had a

486DX mobo with 1992 Compaq and Wayne's World with a tennis racket beside it being the only destinct markings
It has SCSI, PS/2 Mouse and KB, 2 Serial Ports, SCSI I/O on back, LTP, and Video output (15 pin)

240watt AT-PSU which is a BIG Mofo!

Old 5Ã‚Â¼ and 3Ã‚Â½ Floppies
No cables

A Rather large Compaq 32 Bit Fast SCSI 2 Controller Model: X00C with three ports
Not a standard ISA/PCI slot card

Twin 1.05GB IBM SCSI drives made in 1995 Model: DPES-31080 GONE!!! Info Linkie
with a 3 device SCSI cable

Dunno if anyone might be interested in any of this stuff.... any or all for just the cost of shipping and handeling (handeling being any packing materials I have to use and time and gas to drive it to the post)

And before anyone even thinks about posting Hey that stuff is worthless or that aint worth the time or any trolling what-so-ever keep in mind I am ONLY posting this cause some ppl are into this kinda stuff and I am not exactly asking anything for it... and besides.. I am trashing what ever is not gone by say.... sunday night.... so there.. NO TROLLING

Trashing it ALL or whatever is left by Sunday evening!!!

no pic of card but you might be able to find one on google using the model number.. I dunno..

anyway if you want them gimmie your addy in PM or e-mail to twizted@dragonmodz.net and I will get a price for you asap...

I only want the shipping cost as I was going to trash it all and dont know its condition (but around a year ago when I hooked it up the did spin up and read)...

**EDIT** Yes that is the card...

I recognise that card, the scsi card in my compaq is the same, gawd i wish I could get those scsi drives. i need them for my water router.

That card is an eisa card. its basically a 32 bit version of isa just like veas was. It died a qick death to pci as they are problematic to setup.

I'd be interested if the price is low enough. but I may be scrapping my compaq server so... I donno.

Twizted · 30-September-04, 11:04 PM

$5 and you can have it lol.. that will cover shipping and my time and gas....

as I stated about the drives.. I tested the system around a year ago and everything was fine.. but I cant guarantee anything.. but if you want it lmk.... PM me your addy and I will send you a paypal addy to send the money..
