Legend 402CD
Rescued an incomplete desktop Legend 402CD at the town transfer station
(that's the New England euphamism for town dump) today. No CPU, but memory. Case incomplete, so pretty useless. Any interest in some of the parts at the cost of scrap plus shipping? A quick look tells me this is an early Socket 5. Let me know... Ben Myers |

Legend 402CD
Hello Ben !
Good to see someone is still "here". :-) Can't think of anything I need from that. If I saw it laying somewhere I would pick it up, but it's not worth shipping. ( at least to me, I got about everything I need, until I think of something I need. ) bob "Ben Myers" wrote in message ...

Ben Myers I would never think that it makes sense to ship the case, but the motherboard by itself tested and working with CPU, heat sink and memory may be useful to someone. If not, it goes in a carton of B grade circuit boards worth about $1.35/lb. A grade boards have gold edge connectors and are worth $1.65/lb. I collect them and sell them to the local electronics recycler... Ben |

I agree, and I'll take it a step further.....if the case was something I or anyone needed, it would be very valuable. :-) Never know when someone might need *anything*. see you bob |

Ben Anything that seems to work is fine with me such as the floppy or any internal cards and I could use extra ram...its hard to find ram mc I put a CPU in the socket and the system booted right up into Windows 95, which is on the hard drive. The system is complete with hard drive, floppy, and original very slow CD-ROM drive, but there is no cover for the desktop case. There are 2x16MB 72-pin SIMMs. The floppy drive, hard drive and CD-ROM drive, though all originals, are generic items which are a dime a dozen or even less. The motherboard is one without any cache memory, altho the PB600 motherboard diagram on Ray's PB site shows cache memory present. The stupid motherboard design has a soldered-on coin-type battery. Fedco sells all sorts of batteries and probably still has the external type that attaches to the pins shown at J29 in the board diagram. Unless you are in a nearby city, town or state, it may cost a bundle to ship low value parts, so I suggest you take whatever you cannot find locally. Which town, city, state, province, canton, county, or prefecture do you live in? We can figure out what is cost-effective to send to you. Let's take this off-line... Ben |
