John's Old Computers

**PAGE is out of date as of Jaunary 2007** **Visit ABANDONEDSTUFF.COM for contact information** Welcome to my computer page.  I have many of these things, because I used to get them at government auctions to restore them with my Dad.  Now I have too many, so I would like to give/sell them to local people who can use them. If you are looking for an old computer, remember to check out garage sales near you. Some of these computers that are in good working order will be added to our Old Computer Museum.   Some of our parts are in working order, so if you want something we would try to test it before we send it.

I go to school at the University of Regina.  I will try to set my prices low, because the shipping will cost a lot for some pieces.  I'd prefer not to ship whole computers, as sending parts is much easier.

The first column is the price in Canadian dollars. For Americans, if you pay me in U.S. cash [worth ~$0.60 more than a Canadian $1] I will give you a wonderful deal for your money.  I will tinker with the prices, and the list when I have time. Shipping by UPS isn't easy for a normally isolated rural Canadian like my Dad, so picking it up may be cheapest.  Some parts can be mailed, but you'll have to be patient. The "old" computers take a lower priority to the new ones that need fixing around here. (Take a holiday here, Wood Mountain, and pick up your computer on the way home.)

Table Legend:
The first column is the asking price [negotiable]
The second column is the quantity for the price [blank is 1]
The rest are details and accessories with the item.
