| 1149654 | 2010-11-02 05:36:00 | we got a letter from someone in masterton to say that there is one on, was one last year in Wellington but no word of one this year That's the sort of thing I mean - it hasn't been "pushed". Anyone seen any TV ads for it? |

I dumped at the Nelson location last time and there was a large notice advising that stuff could not be removed from the site. Considering the hundreds of people arriving, each with many boxes of parts and componenents, I should imagine if ratting about looking for goodies was permitted it would create absolute mayhem. |

Most LCD monitors can be fixed with about $10 worth of new capacitors in the PSU. New CCFL backlights are also rather cheap (compared to a new monitor) as well. Oh yeah, and the stuff you do throw away gets sent to Africa where it gets burned. Really environmentally friendly! www.youtube.com If you are just going to throw something away, considering getting rid of it on Freecycle (http://www.freecycle.org/) |

| 1149662 | 2010-11-03 03:42:00 | If there's anyone in Dunedin that has an old case that will fit a Micro AXT mobo ... with or without PSU and other bits n pieces ... I'd take it off your hands ... especially if it's got a front USB port !! Trying to build a cheap (like nill $) system for a friend & thier kids who can't afford a computer. Have Gigabyte mobo, P4 with 1Gig RAM, HD, CD/DVD writer, keyboard & mouse ... trying to scrounge up the other bits required. |
