I hope I didn't leave anyone out. If I did it was completely unintentional!

You guys are the best! Thank you all so very much for your generous donations. It looks like I may be able to build about 6-8 boxes. I was lucky enough to get about 6 monitors from work through donations so things are really looking up! I will be sending out receipts later this week. Most of you should have gotten email fairly recently (today at one point or another- please email me if you haven't I've got a long list http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif)I will also send you all the newsletter detailing our help. These people wouldn't have this opportunity without you guys. Thank you.

Best regards
Dave

Glad to do it, Dave.
Think you left out an important one though - Daveleau!!

You've got the tough part, ole buddy! Putting it all together & getting it working.
Sorting out what'll work together...and what won't!!!
Heck of a chore there! http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

[pickel]

[C.C.]

I guess I'm like wyvrn and missed out. I've got some old 8 meg edo simms that you can have. I'll even pay shipping if it's a worthy cause. Seems like everybody else is pitching in, heck, I might as well too. LMK. Casey

I echo Ed! http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif Fantastic things you are doing, daveleau. You're the one putting it all together.

And I already knew SysOpt has the greatest ppl on the Web here http://www.sysopt.com/forum/wink.gif

[daveleau]

YGM too Casey

[wyvrn]

I second that Socalgal. I am members of a couple of other boards but they do not have the family type atmosphere that exists here. I hope we can all keep this group tight knit in the future as well. It has been a pleasure to be a member of this board. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

[daveleau]

I added a few more people to my list of great people. Thanks to all and, again, if I leave anyone out, it is completely unintentional. I already left one out that I know of. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/redface.gif

I must agree that I really enjoy the atmosphere here. I visit other boards but don't spend 1/10 of the time there as I do here. Thanks to all!

Best regards-
Dave

Dave, You have any idea of the things you still need, or are going to come up short on?
Dave

[daveleau]

Right now it looks like I might be good on most systems. Unfortunately, all of the systems I have checked that I got through MUSC are bad, one way or another. I've tested 3 of them.

1- is a 286 (haha!) Placing one of Ed_S's setups in it
2- bad video (onboard) or bad mobo, it shorted out when I started it a second time
3- looks fine, has WFW (win3.11?) but cannot get in to OS b/c they deleted soem integral files. Need to install cd-rom on this one

I found out that I am missing a boot disk for my Win95 disk. Shouldn't be hard to find though. I may run low on cases. Right now I have 2 desktop cases for 6-8 motherboards.

I also got a Macintosh IICX (doorstop or boat anchor, don't know which, unless one of the members of the Society needs a strict word processor. It has a sticking hdd and will be dead soon.)

Thanks,
I'll let you know if I need anything else. Imight have a supplier for cases.

Just want to keep this up a little while longer. I am doing well with hardware now and just want to say thanks and make sure everyone involved sees it and is recognized. You guys have been a great help.
Best regards-
Dave

[welsh wizard]

Dave if it's any use I have a spare 68030 CPU and maybe a small SCSI harddrive ( about 80meg ) out of an SEll if you want I can include it in the next shipment, let me know.
WW

[daveleau]

If my CXII Mac is SCSI, (shows you how much I know about Mac) then I could use the hdd. This one is going south. YGM
THanks
