Or really useful old hardware.....
Another clear out means that I have some old tat to get rid of. Someone may find some of it useful. If so, let me know, otherwise it's going to the wee recycling dump.
Two EZ PCMCIA 10/100 ethernet adaptors (cards slot into old adaptor slots and provide RJ45 ethernet connectors)
One Dell external CD/DVD drive wich uses the Dell connecting cable (with cable)
One Dell external CD/DVD drive which uses USB connecting cable (with cable)
One 5 1/4" floppy drive (really). I have also found a box of Digital Research 5 1/4 floppies with GEM etc dating from 1987 if anyone is feeling really nostalgic.
One "universal modulator" from Maplin (one of these http://www.maplin.co.uk/programmable-universal-modulator-33050)

Wot is it? The link activated, the site took far too long to load, and was using up my 15 quids'worth of GPRS band-narrowness too hungrily for my liking.

I still have *lots* of 5.25" floppy disks if anyone wants them, I *may* have a 5.25" drive too.

I've dozens of brand-new 5¼" floppies, but if no-one else wants it, the drive might cumminandhi even if I never use it...
(2 full towers and two midi towers to feed.)
Now, what would *really* be useful is an external box for a 5¼" drive...

Oh. Read without reading IYKWIM.
Read 'Digital Research' and translated it as 3" diskettes.
Have a superabundance of 5¼" floppies already

And I have also found a PCI ethernet card - probably 10/100.
