Got this old Dell Dimension 5150 in mint condition for free. It's a Pentium D 2.8 gHz, with 2 gb of ram, and a 500 gb HD. Installed 64 bit Windows 7 on it. Runs surprisingly well. I'll keep it around as a spare.

My mother recently upgraded her phone, and gave me her old one - a Nokia Lumia 610. It's a bit sluggish but not too bad considering only an 800mhz processor and 256mb ram! Decent little phone though of course I'll be sticking with my iPhone 5 :)

About two years ago I lost my ipod nano and bose IE2 headphones... today I wore my Carhartt jacket for the first time in two years and pulled my keys out and guess what came smashing to the cement ground?

8GB black ipod nano... only a small ding as a result... reached in my pocket, pulled out bose IE2 headphones..

I thought these were long gone, so it's almost like I got them for free all over again :D

Another one I saved from the Trash

I just saved this

I am going to use it with the Xserve RAID I got a few weeks back. Luckily this is a Dual G5 1.8, 4GB Ram and it has the PCI-X slots for my Fibre Channel card.

Where'd you save it from? I now feel bad about paying for my dual 2.0 lol

My work is preparing to move into a new building and we are clearing out a lot of equipment that is no longer needed. I am one of 3 Mac guys in IT. I get first pick of the toys.

I'm slightly jealous, not only is it free, but it looks extremely clean!
