nurkvinny Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 I friend owns an exhaust shop in Zanesville and needs a cheap (think <$30 cheap) PC. He only needs the tower, and really only needs enough performance to print labels and browse a couple sites. He is currently on a crashing 98 machine and asked me to find him something else.

KillJoy Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 If you do not care what is looks like, or it's specs, I am SURE I have one you can HAVE! KillJoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 I'd say as long as it's > 300 and something mhz, he'd be thrilled with it. Only real "must have" is a modem and ethernet card, because I have no idea what service he has at his shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillJoy Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 Need an OS loaded? What about Office? Any other applications? KillJoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurkvinny Posted December 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 - Yes, an OS. - No to office (if he really needs it, I can load it later) - Solitaire is really the main thing he'll use it for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I cannot find anything (even at my parent house) that is not a complete piece of junk. I really though tI had an AMD 700mhz around somewhere in my Old Case. But, damned if I can find it. Sorry. KillJoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
