RetroBox: Cool Cheap Old Gear

Posted: December 31st, 2003 | Author: Matt Croydon | Filed under: Web Services | Comments Off

Via PCLinuxOnline, Linuxbeginner points to RetroBox.  RetroBox is a website that sells old computer gear for amazingly reasonable prices.  And by amazingly reasonable prices, I’m talking about $25 or so for a solid PII with some RAM and a decent hard drive.  It’s definitely enough to run a fairly modern Linux system on.

They also have amazing prices on used Sparc and UltraSparc systems.  For just under or just over a hundred bucks, you can pick up a solid UltraSparc system.

The only drawback is shipping costs.  I wonder how much gear one would have to buy to make a field trip to Columbus worthwhile…
