**EDIT** Added a Visioneer Paperport One-Touch Scanner that I'd meant to when I first posted this thread, but I forgot to take pictures of it. All of the requisite software and cables come with it, and the thing saw very little use.

Yet another sale thread, but this one is more of a "I'm tired of having a box taking up space in my den!" sale than anything else, so I'm more than happy to entertain lowball offers or, possibly, just shipping charges to get this thing out of my way. This is a great-running machine that never gave me any trouble, and it's a good starter comp for rugrats and other kids.

First, links to the pics:

A box, though I may use a smaller one to ship if I can pack everything into it:

----------

Now, the specs for the computer itself:

475 mhz AMD processor (back when AMD was king)
13 GB hard drive (formatted for my protection)
384 MB SDRAM
8 MB on-board video (32 MB video card included in package, but haven't used it in years)
Windows 98 SE (the GOOD 98 edition)

Other stuff that comes with it:

Keyboard
2 Mice
Speakers (bought in 2003)
32 MB video card (not used in years)
Box of SD and/or DDR RAM boards (not sure which kind or how much is in the box)
3 Ethernet/LAN cards (two packed separately, one in comp)
56k modem card (in comp)
All relevant software & manuals (Windows 98 SE, Gateway recovery disc, Quicken, etc.)
Enough wires, USB, and coaxial cables to hang an elephant
And probably a few other things I'm forgetting about

Also, I'm throwing in a boxed copy of Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magic Obscura for free, since I never play it anymore. :)

Because I really just want to get rid of this thing!

FYI, it should be securely wiped for your protection. Formatting does not erase the data on your hard drive, no siree. Just want to make sure your information doesn't wind up in someone else's hands.

True...I can't remember if I ever conducted any online business on that computer, so I should probably have someone do that for me.

Alternatively a 13 gig harddrive doesnt have much value these days be safe, trash the thing.
