(this is NOT a repost, but a post for another system - the first one went in 1/2 an hour!) For Sale : This is a BRAND NEW computer (sealed box, unopened software, etc.). It's ready to run out of the box (w/the addition of a monitor). The system is: Compaq Professional Workstation 5000 ------------------------------------- Dual PentiumPro 200Mhz/256K L2 Cache (yes, that's TWO cpus) 128 MB EDO ECC RAM ELSA Gloria-L 3-D graphics controller (8MB VRAM + 8MB DRAM Z buffer) UW SCSI controller (on board) 4.3 GB Ultra-Wide SCSI drive (Compaq branded Seagate Barracuda) Autosensing Netelligent 10/100 TX UTP/Coax Controller (on board) SB16 compatible sound (on board) 8X CD-ROM (IDE) 1.44 MB, 3.5" Floppy Keyboard, mouse Microphone NT Workstation 4.0 COST: $1300.00 OBO (A year ago these things were selling for >$5000, and Compaq is now selling exactly the same system for $1999 at www.compaqworks.com) This system is great for number crunching, CAD work, 3-D rendering, or other fpu intensive operations. The speed on FPU intensive stuff is roughly equivalent to a PentiumII-400MHZ machine (see http://www.lucas3d.com/bench3d/html/mes-tests-max-in.html) for some benchmarks. Would prefer to sell in the Chicago area but will ship for added shipping charges. Interested? Contact me at: Paul Magwene pmagwene@midway.uchicago.edu 773-493-5157
