Hi Michael,
Got off a bit early this past Thu afternoon of 2019-04-11 and ran into Kim
while we were both shopping at Berkeley Bowl. Mentioned to her that with
some spare evening time on my end, I might visit Sudo Room that evening;
http://sudoroom.org
I did indeed visit Sudo Room that evening and found parts+components to
assemble a working 32bit PC, together with the parts+components from that
Dell "cage" computer I originally donated for your/BALUG's 'Offered/Wanted:
Hardware, etc' page
https://www.wiki.balug.org/wiki/doku.php?id=balug:offered_wanted_hardware_etc
(already correctly disposed of the ewaste of that "cage" computer.)

So I'd like to offer you and/or others reading your/BALUG's
'Offered/Wanted: Hardware, etc' this fully working computer.  Am even using
this as I'm writing to you now.

The PC is an older IBM/Lenovo ThinkCentre M50-8187 horizontal desktop and
it has 4 GB of RAM.
There are manual webpages starting at
https://www.manualslib.com/manual/406127/Ibm-8185-Thinkcentre-M50-256-Mb-Ram.html?page=39#manual
that describe this model.
I installed Debian GNU/Linux Testing/'buster" on the two 80 GB EIDE/PATA
hdd's and partitioned the first drive so that a second Linux distro could
be installed in a dual-boot fashion together with Debian, if so desired. Am
including the CPU/system box, the same PS/2 keyboard and mouse as before, a
power cable, and a length of standard Cat5E ethernet patch cable.
Cannot provide a VGA monitor for this PC, though.

Please inform if/when you'd be interested in this.
-Aaron

Much further detailed information on this PC, from running 'inxi -Frmx' as
