Rag and Bone Geek

Beware: Shameless Solicitation at the end of this entry.

I am a GEEK.

I know this because of the sheer amount of computing muscle which resides in my room. At the Peak of my Geek, I had 2 desktops, 2 notebooks and 3 Pocket PCs running simultaneously. This excludes the 2 other 'back up' PCs in my closet. Some people collect shoes and handbags, I guess I just find it difficult to throw away my old gadgets.

My room was starting to look more like a Sim Lim Square Ghetto instead of the Techno Love Nest I had originally envisioned it to be. I guess it is time for a little house cleaning.

I moved one PC over to my new exlusive clubhouse because 'sharing PCs is like sharing underwear - they don't call it PERSONAL COMPUTER for nothing'. and donated another to my friend's business.

I also heard that ARPC was looking at a hardware upgrade and figured that some of my hardware could be put to good use: sell off the techno junk and put the proceeds into the church building fund. My biggest worry is that I will take the 'junk money' and gratiate my iPod lust with the IM7, so I'm posting this as a form of accountability.

I am also making an appeal to anyone who may suffer the unfortunate maladition of collecting electronic junk to purge their room and donate the proceeds to a worthy cause. Specifically I am looking for that computer or computer part that you just got a replacement for. Televsion sets, old DVD players (why would anyone need 2 DVD players?) That discman discarded in favor of the sexy new iPod....

If the idea of assessment, refurbishment, finding a buyer and delivery seems a bit of a hassle, let me handle it. I'll be more than happy to play Rag and Bone man.
