I've got a board and a chip I'd be willing to part with.  I don't remember offhand if it's PCI or AGP on the board.  I'll look at it whenever I get home and post again.

What is your budget? I have a few systems lying around that more than meet your requirements, but I'm not sure what you are looking to spend.

You can catch me on AIM or email me at yankfan284 AT hotmail DOT com if its better for you.

I am looking to spend 50-100, but I may be picking up something this weekend.  Thanks for all the replies and I will let you know if it does not work out.

1Hooked, did you get your PC yet? I"m in Marietta and have an extra one. Let me know.

Also, are you going to the SuperAuction tomorrow? Have you been before? I'm trying to find an empty 4-player cabinet, so I'm debating going to see what they have.

I am going to go tommorow.  I have never been and am interested to check it out.  I am picking up a motherboard and processor from a guy tommorow at the auction.  It is real cheap, but I am not sure what I am getting into.  I would be interested in knowing what you have.  I may be able to help out with 4 player cab as well.  I am probably just going to wear jeans and a back t-shirt, but I have a tattoo of a 50's style Space Girl on my left forearm with some rockets and such.  You can probably spot me that way.  See you there, James.

I should go up there... I've never been to an auction!  I'm dying to get a pinball machine... and I could go to the Dodgers/Braves game afterward! :)

Hey, keep an eye out for a box of .984 mechs... you can sell a bunch to all the guys buying the BYOAC custom tokens... :)

I heard some clamoring about Super Auctions, shill-bidding, bad attitude, misrepresetation...I don't know if any of it is true but I am going to just play some games and watch  to see how the whole thing goes.
