1337318 2013-04-18 04:08:00 Anyone know where to get second hand computers in Chch now that the computer broker has closed down? Global PC has taken over their database and is dealing with some of their ex-lease boxes but they don't have what Im looking for. Does anyone know of anywhere else that sells ex-lease or SH boxes?

Im looking for a SFF desktop case or similar that can fit in a cupboard but it needs to have a full length PCI slot so that I can put a 4 port capture card in it. Nothing flash, min specs are around, XP, 2GHz CPU, 1G ram don't care about HDD as a 1Tb drive will be put in (although it must be SATA and not IDE), if I cant get one in Chch Im willing to courier one in for the right price.

Any help from anywhere would be appreciated.
Thanks all.

Was dropping off 20 old CRT monitors into these guys recently, they had quite a few old boxes for sale. Some on ubuntu, some XP, mostly pentium 4 machines.

1337321 2013-04-18 04:50:00 Alex, many thanks, looks like I have more than one reason to call them, been looking for a battery for a Durabook and it looks like that crowd is Twinhead Notebooks agents so will be worth the call, thanks for that, appreciate the link. Cheers

Nick, didn't know they were selling as well, thanks, I'll be sure to pop around the corner to see them, thanks for that.
