Not really sure if this is in the right forum, but I'm hoping someone will be able to help. I'm looking to buy job lots (10+) of fairly old PCs, prefereably around the PII-400 mark, but anything down to a Pentium 100 should be fine. Must have CD-ROMS, be able to boot from CD and have network ports. Anyone know where I could look for something like that?

ps: must be in the UK too.

    I would contact businesses that are upgrading their automation. If you can find a business that still has equipment that slow, that hasn't already disposed of it two or three generations ago, they might be happy to give you the equipment. It might be easier than the environmental restrictions on disposal. Seriously though, it may be tough to find a quantity of machines that old.

    Better yet, convince him to buy me a round-trip ticket and I'll deliver them for prime.

    I'd love to get over there and meet all you guys. :D :ukflag:
