[ptyerman]

As stated by the title, for sale is a Packard Bell Platinum 2030 PC with BeOS Max V4 installed. The hardware consists of:

MSI MS6119 Slot 1 Motherboard fitted with a Pentium III 550.
512Mb of RAM.
Geforce 4 MX440 Video Card with 64Mb.
CMI 8737 Crystal Chipset Soundcard.
Realtek RTL8139 Network Card.
20Gb Hard Drive with room to add another 2.
CD Rewriter.
Floppy Drive.
You will need a PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse as these are not included.
Working good and built like a tank! (It is quite heavy because of this).

Windows drivers and updated BIOS is still available at MSI's website.

Quite a lot of software is pre installed including games and office stuff, utilities and multi-media software etc.
Dozens of wallpapers and hundreds of music modules are installed.
Some video's related to Be, BeOS and Haiku are on the hard drive.
I will include BeOS MAX install CD with it.

£20 plus P+P by PayPal.
I haven't weighed it yet so not sure what it would be in the UK, I think the weight of it would make it prohibitively expensive to ship overseas.

"prohibitively expensive to ship overseas" is a sad note to those across the Pond. (interested of course)

I'm sure that local pickup would be okay...

This is heavy and unfortunately the shipping companies hammer you for it these days. I could get an estimate if you were interested, but expect to have a heart attack at the results!

I quite enjoyed using BeOS back in the day...

I still do, it still has some advantages over Haiku, OpenGL for one. Plus there is more software available than you can shake a stick at, albeit a little aged now.
