Well, they're all free.
Seeing as Kalmar so unselfishly decided to give away a mp3 player I decided it was time to truncate my stuff and do the same.

I can't promise when these will be sent but a name and addy and I'll earmark them. Might not be for 10-12 days, next time I'm in town.

Firstly I have a SATA - Flash adapter. Can be used to build a solid state drive but I have a shit slow flash card (shoulda read more). Mind you, it would still be handy for use as a backup drive thinger (I did til I got the new PC and that has a spangly frontal media reader).

Pic. I paid 9 quid delivered. You can send me a pound for postage if you want (every little helps) but otherwise Ill send second class any way.

Secondly, an Asrock SLI bridge adapter. Sadly it only goes over 2 ports, not the 3 I need for my board. Brand new, never opened never used. I paid about 3 quid for it, doesnt work for me..

Thirdly. A wacom Graphire 2. It's SERIAL. Please remember this. It hijacks your ps2 connector for the keyboard (maybe to power it) and then goes into a serial port. These were, and for the usb ones now still are, about 100 quid. This is quite large as it comes with the pen AND the wireless mouse so I would need help with the shipping (say a fiver or so) but I'm not trying to earn anything. It's immaculate, and if you like to draw digitally it's great. I no longer have a serial port or enough desk space to use it and I'm kinda going away from all that now.

Pics if needed. The only thing I don't have for this is the pen holder. but Im sure you could find something suitable in Staples or whatnot. Even your local stationer should be able to provide one for a couple of quid.

I'll keep digging, and if I find anything else then I'll LYK. Obviously if Kalmar would like any of it then I would have to give dibs (favor for a favor) but otherwise I don't care who has them.

Oh, and I really look after my shit. The wacom is like brand new.

Here is the wacom and a CT4870 sblive 1024. The SB I just found. I had it working wonderfully in XP but when I dual booted Vista it wouldn't work, not even with the 3rd party driver. I had it working once, but as soon as I rebooted it all went tits up.

Again, free if you want it.

Nice one John.

What I could use, if anyone has one gathering dust, is an external drive box or adaptor cable thing so I can use the old SATA drive from my mac as a backup.

Argh !

I actually had an external drive box til I chopped the PSU to power my neons under the glass table. Mind you, it was IDE and horribly bastardised so it only fit Lite on drives (crafty buggers).

I'll keep digging, I'm sure I have more stuff that could be helpful to others.

No point selling it (though I could on ebay) as I don't really need the cash.

Oh. I also have a brand newish Terratec Aureon that my cousin didn't need (I had it for testing sampled sound in one of my old coding projects as the onboard was shit). It's missing a jumper because I had to replace a drive the other day that had no jumper on, but with a jumper it's new. Still boxed too, I've only had it about 2 weeks. I've put a note in the box with it to show where the jumper goes.

It's just nice to have a top end sound card now :)

What happened to the innards of the G4 tower you ransacked?

All yours. I'll give you my paypal addy for the shipping.

I wouldn't normally charge (esp cos of that hub) but I'm totally cleared out atm and I don't want to send such an item second class because it'll get pinched or broken.

It's gonna need some packing too, so it won't be small.
