I could really use the package that's up right now (AMD + mobo + RAM + voodoo). I am building an NS server box, currently P3 450, ATI Rage 128 Pro (thats a 4 mb card btw), and 128 RAM.
The mobo and cpu would really help the server, and, no matter which stick of RAM is broken, that would at least double my RAM. The Voodoo 3, or the GeForce 4 *HINT HINT*, would be really appreciated too. (For the GF4, I would put it into my main comp and put it's GF2 into the server).
If you do this I'll give you a reserved slot + Admin. I trust you, kind of, maybe...
Why are you giving away doom2? I would have thought from your name that you were a doom maniac (pun sort-of not unintended)

That AMD Mobo would be a good thing to replace my old mobo. Sadly, my server mobo began emmiting smoke after I "Frankensteined" the server together from old computer parts (I replaced the powersupply with a new one, and tested it on my computer...it should work). So, now I have shells with drives, HDDs, but no mobos...sigh.
You wouldn't happen to have an old 1993 IBM power cord would you? Somehow I lost mine for my good ol' Windows 3.1 system. Pffft.
Plus: I don't get what's up with SS2 - it just didn't seem that scary. Sure, it's got a decent story and whatever, but I just wasn't seeing the gripping suspense. I've been more scared in AvP.
Also, it doesn't seem to want to work on Windows XP, anyway; so it's just sitting in my closet back home (...actually, the CD might not even be in the closet <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> ). Just because it's not backward compatible. Same thing with Conquest of the New World (but you really needed DOS for that; and since a DOS emulator doesn't even play it right on XP, it has no hope (you can do battle simulation, but not conquest mode - the cool part)).
Although, I ripped one of the HDD that's in this computer from my sister's old computer, so there really should be a working Windows 98 on here somewhere (if I only knew how to be able to use it on here (I've got all the files, but it just doesn't seem to want to recognize it - so if you've got a "salvage old OSes from HDDs from a non-native computer" type tutorials sitting around, send one my way (although, it's probably impossible; being not compatible with the BIOS or something).

I might. Heck, I have a complete PCJr. Complete with manuals and everything (if someone is interested, I am willing to sell it. PM me if you want it and will appreciate it). I have so many old computers. I'll look for the cord this weekend, if you really need it.
