Couple more xserves with extras

[waynestewart]

I had to kill a little time while I was waiting on someone so I started looking around on craigslist and saw a couple of xserves in the free section. Only thing was there was a price on the topic. So I emailed and asked what was free. The reply was "all of it". He said when he moved the xserves to the free section, he couldn't find a way to change the price. They were moving their business to another location and didn't want to haul them along.

So I picked up a couple of dual 1.33ghz Xseves with few extras. All in boxes, a new motherboard in a sealed antistic bag, couple of mounting kits, OSX server 10.2.4 CD sets, spare fan and the manuals. Also a bunch of blank drive trays. I guess they must have had a number of xserves that they upgraded. Came with maxed RAM and a few 60 & 80gb HDs. One wouldn't recognize the drive until I reseated the ATA controller board.

Now I'm up to 4 of these and still don't know what to do with them

Even still - free Xserves? With the boxes? And the software? Um, SCORE!

If you are ever on the Island, I'm more than willing to take one off your hands.

I haven't been over in a long long time. But if you happened this way then you could not only pick up a xserve but I could likely throw in a wallstreet. Maybe a few other things

Would you be willing to ship one to the US?

I've been idly wanting one off and on for a couple years now, but they're always too expensive .

I could probably pay the shipping, though .

I've only got the one spare. It's a working one that I kept for parts in case my other one needed them. I was a bit sentimental about it because it got me through when I was ill and finances were horribly bad 6 or 7 years ago. The idea was in the back of my head to make sure of it in case I should ever need it again. Of course realistically I have a number of newer G3, G4 and intel portables that I'd sooner use
