Mitsumi FX320S CD rom drive
32x - It's a simple fast CD drive that you can boot off of.  I got myself
a nice burner, so this is no longer needed.  It has the volume control
and headphone jack(not the OEM version pulled from a typical Gateway
or simmilar system)
$10

Alcatel Speed Touch Home - DSL modem - Left over from my PacBell DSL service.
Save the rent they charge you every month!   Mint condition.
EBAY is selling these for $50 on average.

3Com Etherlink III.  Nice ethernet card.  Left over from my DSL service.
16-bit card, works perfectly.  I have a cable modem now, so, no need for
this either.
$35 for both.

*****
Apple Extended Keyboard II.  This is the classic buttery smooth
older Apple ADB keyboard.  Been in storage for about ten years,
still works perfectly.  Originally sold for aver $100 and this is
the better, older model with the Northgate construction(not the
flimsy one that came with the Powermac/G3 models.)

$10 - a real steal if you have a Mac.  I can type 20wpm faster
on this than any other keybaord Apple makes(70-80 vs 40-50
in actual comparison tests) with half the fatigue.  I bought this
when I had a Mac and when I was forced to migrate to PC due
to cost, I kept the keybaord in case I'd ever get another one.
Clean, crisp, near-mint condition keys.  No hammering or abuse.

HP 694C Inkjet printer.   Works with PC - Windows 98 and above
have the drivers on the install disk.  We just put a new color
cartridge in it a month ago and have another new color cartridge.
These cartridges are expensive(HP brand), which sell about $35
new.(PCmall, etc)

$50 - mint condition.  We print maybe 3-5 pages a week on it,
basically for our son to color on(B&W outlines).  The color
cartridge in it has about 5 pages at most on it, as he started
preschool and they give him lots of stuff to color on ;)
The black is about 1/3 full, but they are inexpensive and easy
to replace/refill - the color ones are the pain to deal with.

Buying a printer is a pain when the consumables run you so
much money - this way you only have to buy the black ink
for the next year.  Selling because my wife's monitor is
dying and I want to get a used 17 inch to replace it ASAP.
Will consider a swap of a nice 17 inch monitor for the printer.
