FOR FREE Compaq Socket 7 Bundle (Board/CPU/RAM/PSU)

[bjt]

Got this as part of a larger lot and would like to pass it on to someone who will make use of it.
I believe it's from a Compaq Prolinea system circa 95/96.

- Pentium 75/100/120 (not sure which it is)
- 8MB RAM onboard & 4 72-pin SIMMS (not sure of size)
- Onboard Cirrus Logic GD-5434 Alpine
- Compaq ISA/PCI riser & PSU
- Serial, parallel, VGA, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports
- Matching Compaq PSU

Passes POST without errors and tries to boot an OS (I didn't have any drives connected).

FREE, just pay postage.

Bump, price reduced!

I assume coming from a Compaq, all these bits are designed to fit in a Compaq case rather than following ATX? (apart from the CPU, RAM etc...)

Yep, that's right. You could make your own case I suppose, I saw one the other day made from a cardboard box
Don't want to junk it as it does seem to be fully functional.

I know the feeling. And you just know there's someone out there with a broken Compaq that wants this lot!

OK , anyone want this for the price of postage? I estimate around £5 in the UK via Collect+ or Hermes.
