Cheap PCs

matt_Sth

Morning all

Apologies if this is in the wrong place, wasnt to sure where to put it.

Does anyone have any ideas where I can get cheap second hand PCs? I am doing some IT training and it would be handy to have an older/spare PC to play around with. I asked at the local tip as there were a load there but they said they do not sell anything now so im a bit unsure where to try now.

Thanks

Local paper,
ebay,
freecycle,

stick in a "I want broken PCs ad in too"

Just a suggestion but why don't you look to buy 2nd hand components and build your own PC. that is really good practise.

Motherboard
CPU
RAM
Hard Disk Drive
CD Rom Drive
Graphics card (if not on motherboard)
Sound card (if not on motherboard)
Case

It is really easy to do and you will know your machine inside and out.

Thanks for correcting my spelling. How anal are you? I bet your BF loves it up your tight little 'arris doesn't he? I would like to wager that Torrento lives in San Francisco and has a GF named Jason and they go out clubbing in their short-shorts and their favourite dance track is "its raining men" while they shower each other with sp*nk and go dirty dogging at Paddington Green.

How about this bundle to get started, currently at 99p from ebay and the guy confirms that it boots up.

Just bl**dy take them I do :beer: If you think they will bother you just ask politely and when they say it is against policy just ask to speak to their boss they are normally ok.
