Having bought some new stuff, I now have some old stuff to give away to a good home:

• 1 x 19″ CRT Monitor - weighs a tonne, and is decidedly dark of picture - fine for general use, particularly if you can get some gamma correction out of your gfx card drivers. (Nvidia settings under Linux worked fine for me).
• 1 x 15″ CRT Monitor. IBM G50. Works fine, but doesn’t have the highest resolution in the world
• 1 x Fridge - I think it’s a Hotpoint. I have the manual. No freezer compartment. Designed to be built in to a kitchen - I have all the fittings for attaching a cupboard door to it.

Mail me at mrben at jedimoose dot org, or post a comment if you’re interested. Pick up preferred, although I might deliver in exceptional circumstances

We had an influx of cash last week, so on Saturday we went shopping

Heather got the laptop she has been asking for - a Toshiba Equium which is quite nice. It’s a bit light on memory, and it’s running XP Home and Office 2003, but other than that I almost like it myself

More importantly, I finally picked up a new monitor - a 19″ Iiyama reduced by £100 in PC World. I don’t normally shop there, but it was such a good deal and the 12ms response time is fine for gaming. Now all I need is a new graphics card to replace my faulty old one…. (and new mp3 player….)
