It's that time of year (almost): spring cleaning!

In the process of doing that, if you guys have any older computers / chassis with some of the following parts still intact and attached:

Motherboard
CPU / HSF
Power supply
RAM
Network card (THIS IS A BIGGIE)

I'd be interested in bargaining for the computer's detainment and subsequent release into my custody ;)

I've got a dual-format distributed computing setup finally running at the house. i recondition / refit older computers and use them for Stanford University's (fairly) well-known Folding@Home project.

Here's a link to Stanford's main site and they have a quicklist on the right hand side of current projects and progress made: http://folding.stanford.edu/

If the computer is sitting there doing nothing, I'll give it a good home.

Minimum requirements: P3-500, 128MB RAM, working PSU/motherboard/hopefully a network card, although I have some extras.

For the geeks, I've attached a network diagram explaining how it works.

I'm not looking to shell out silly amounts of cash here as these comps will be doing DC work and sucking up electricity. It IS a good cause. Donations are most gratefully accepted (in computer form, not cash). :)
