And by the way, I also have some stuff which is about to go to the 
dump, unless anyone wants it...

386 (sic) PC with 8MB ram and a whopping 40MB HD. No longer boots, 
BIOS eprom gone. Contains 5.25" floppy drive.

Pentium 90 PC. Working. Smallish (200MB) SCSI HD. Sony CD which runs 
through the soundcard (that's how they used to work, kiddies) and 
100MB tape drive.

Case from Viglen server. No digital bits, but a nice big working power
supply.

VGA (ie 640 x 480 x 16 colour) monitor. Works fine.

Motherboard with P3 450MHz. Works fine.

I shall also be disposing of some stuff which may have value:

14" multisynch monitor

ATI Rage Pro 64+ AGP graphics card

Adaptec 2940UW SCSI controller

3Com PCI network card

but if anyone is interested, talk to me before they hit eBay ...
