I have been doing this basically since the day I became a member, like 15 days .....
And have been reading this site RELIGIOUSLY. First of all, big thank you to everyone who, simply put, gives a **** about helping others. I have been scouring Craigslist for FREE pick ups only. I have no money to spent right now and if I can turn a buck or two AND LEARN SOMETHING I am super happy.
Anyways, I'll cut to the chase... I had to go up to Waterville to help my sister out with some stuff and saw an ad on Craigslist for a bunch of random Computer stuff... for free. I figured, what the hell.....
Well, I scored, at least I think, pretty good. I haven't even looked inside the boxes of random parts they threw in my truck!!! I'll post pictures as soon as I get home and after I off load and sort. Basically I told the dudes if it fits in the truck, I'll take it. And boy, they loaded.
At quick glance in the mountain in the bed of my truck.... about 20 monitors, 20 PCs. In the back seat, 6 flat screen monitors, a hand full of keyboards, and four large banker boxes of "parts". I glanced in them as they were going in the truck and I KNOW I saw assorted RAM, MOBOs, and other PCI cards. Not to mention the arm fulls of power cords and other cords.
Like I said, I'm new to this, I have always been fascinated with the idea of it, and now that I lost my job I have time to focus on it. I have to pay the bills somehow while I'm looking for another job. then I hope to keep this going part time, until I can build up enough base and enough connections (networking) to maybe make this more than a hobby. I have no one else to be excited with because everyone thinks I'm crazy. but I figured you guys might be excited with me! thank you again for everything. I promise I will post pictures as soon as I can!
