Re: Trade: Stuff for >100mW

most of that stuff is not worth anything, I don't mean to be, well, mean!

Most of that stuff has things that are fun to mess around with lasers. The hard drives have good FS mirrors, the LCD screens have lots of diffraction sheets, the floppies will have motors for spyros...

You could make a decent lasershow out of that stuff!

Maybe I am to someday build a computer so complex it would consume entire worlds to fuel its massive pwnage.

Second that. That Omega stuff has micro motors you could use. Other than that its right back in the trash for most of the stuff. Unfortunately most/all of the junk you pick is truly junk.

Re: Trade: Stuff for >100mW

What exactly is wrong with the laptop

Lets see, cd drive broken, lots of screws missing, cracks here and there, no hdd, when I do put a hdd in, sometimes it doesn't read it right, and other various little things, like the trackpad goes insane and the only thing that you can do is restart the computer.

What the hell is the Amstrad floppy disk thing?

A floppy disk for an old amstrad computer. Sort of reminds me of a zip disk.

That one I got from a friend that worked at a computer fix-it shop, he told the person that had it, it was broken, but it wasn't he just wanted a laptop. So he used it for a while, then he got a new one and he gave it to me (the old one, duh, lol), so i played an unbelievable amount of video games on it, and it just turned to crap over time. He gave me 2 more a while back, so now I'm using one of those.
