Nope. Try amibay (it sucks), vintage computer forms. Or any other site with a classified adds spot. I have however seen alot of people pit their amibay forsale/wanted posts in their sig. But Id think ebay is a different thing. Even given things away is seen as a taboo here.

Re: What was your favorite computing era?

This was also the last era before the internet started taking over and "in person" computer …

I'd consider a PCI Cirrus Logic card like GD-5446 as an option too. Gave me ~25% fps boost in Duke3D over the Virge and has great DOS compatibility. If you plan on running with the workstation PPro theme Matrox seems like the best choice. Thanks, that was my though with the Matrox as well. unique …

Sometime down the road I want to build a SK8 system, I have the perfect case for one. But I lack just about everything else. Now I know all the other parts I want. But the 2D card I'm at a loss on.
