[Leaplist] free legacy hardware, installfest

If anyone wants to acquire them at installfest, I can bring an ancient 
K6(i) 300MHz system and an old Pentium system (probably 150MHz), both in 
solid mid tower cases.  The former is ATX, the later is actually AT I 
believe.  Both have PSUs and still worked in December.

I also have a small PSU sized box with some ATA ribbons cables and some 
extra expansion cards, probably old PCI NICs and PCI/AGP video cards.

Additionally, I have a dual Celeron system I acquired from Bryan.  It 
has leaky caps, though, as apparently all dual Celeron mainboards of the 
era did, so I am not using it for anything.  I don't have the expertise 
or the time to attempt to replace the caps, though apparently 
replacement kits exist online.  The caps in question are about a half 
dozen, all bulging or leaking, around both CPUs on the mainboard.  Box 
is bare with both CPUs and a generic PSU.

Obviously, none of it is worth shipping anywhere.  But I can bring them 
to installfest on Saturday, if someone wants to profess an interest.  
Let me know.

Thanks.
