Well, I've kind of bet my wife I can go through 2005 without upgrading any of my PC components on either of our PCs. Yeah.
Anyway, to that end, I've been piling up on various things these last few days, but still some stuff I'm missing to get through the year! I'm pretty happy where my PC is (with parts on order, of course), but the wife's needs a few tweaks.
* AthlonXP Barton core. Speed doesn't really matter, it's to upgrade an AXP '2000+' with 256k cache. This isn't a terribly high priority item, and since you can buy a '2400+' Barton new for $69 shipped....
* 512mb (at least) or 1gb (preferred) of DDR ram. Type doesn't matter, just needs to be CL2 at 133FSB (DDR266). Offering $100 for 1gb or $55 for 512mb. Seeing as how I'd be happy with as little as 512mb CL2 PC2100, there should be LOTS of old ram laying around that meets this criteria!
Anyway, please feel free to bump this! At least, for the next couple days - no more upgrades for 2005 means I have to get this all wrapped up ASAP!
