Hi aaronco36
welcome to sudoroom!
Thank you for putting out the proverbial Welcome Mat!
you're certainly welcome to work on the machine at
sudoroom, but if you
leave it there permanently i think it will be recycled as e-waste unless
somebody takes it away. It's too old and inefficient for us to use as a
server, since we're trying to conserve electricity use. Also we have a
lot of server hardware already that we're not using.
Although when I visited earlier, I clearly saw another 120 GB IDE hard
drive on one of the shelves marked as questionably "Bad?". Even if the
machine should be designated as e-waste (contains a fair amount of
heavy, non-PCB, re-usable steel metal) rather than someone else taking
the entire machine away, I think the two free hard drives are good and
reclaimable for other awesome sudoroom projects.
And both good 120 GB hard drives are there for the offering entirely
free; free as in not $20....

Before getting sent straight to e-waste, ppl could also easily strip
away the 3 GB of memory and the two CPUs (maybe other internal parts as
well?) for excellent project reclamation.
Thanks for the offer!
You're very welcome!
