Yet another cast iron pan, corrugated base even. This one has made its way to the house next door after testing and curing. No pic, but you know what it look like after the last one, see below.
A large selection of iMacs, cast off from some very well know TV show production crew. HDs wiped (kudos to them) but many (variously) functional machines present, one example shown booted and running:
A Seca medical/bathroom style scale that seems to work and is fairly nice. This will henceforth be employed for ebay shipping weight determination and for assessing the mass of people as we did not, prior to this point, have such a device.
One nice white Mac keyboard. Previous owner stated that spillage of noxious acidic corn sugar laden liquid had terminated functionality of said device.
Quick cleanup and it worked fine, the one it replaced being genuine Apple (but without the numpad keys) it went to see Mr Ebay and returned useful cash.
Four stainless steel 40 pint soda kegs. I am not sure what you can do to make these things really useful (i.e. how you can use them for beer) but we shall see. Pic of one of them here about to celebrate new year:
Fine stuff.
A very silly looking iBook 500Mhz box complete with styrofoam inserts and cardboard. There is no iBook inside of course but the idiocy of Mac users guarantees a return for the small investment of picking it up and carrying it home.
Dell Pentium 4 1.8GHz PC stripped except for case, power supply, CPU, heatsink. As we were roving happily sans transport and tools at the time we just took the cpu and heatsink. Update: CPU is now deployed to fix a friend's machine that had somehow developed a bad CPU. Heatsink is a paperweight.
Two sets of Mac OS 10.3.3 install plus software restore plus extra software CDs for iBook G4s. These are unopened and in super condition, pic shows one ready for its appearance on ebay, there are usually a few .
Dell 20 inch CRT. Gentleman discarding it admitted he got a flatscreen for xmas. I suspect there will be substantial pickings next week.
A Micron 733MHz with 128M RAM and a 20G disk. Full working order except that that the memory was in slot number 2. After moving it to slot number 0 the thing booted. Added ethernet (to avoid use of crappy on board ethernet) and modem for export, re-installed and updated and everybody is happy. I hate windows. This will find a home with some grateful punte.
A "Rock Grinder" mountain bike. One pedal has broken frame, must have been that grinding on rocks. Otherwise everything is present and correct. We rode it around a bit before putting it in storage for sale next year.
A cast iron pan with corrugated base. Pic shows it with our partially cooked roast lamb in it after a good clean and high temperature re-curing. It did not come with the lamb of course, we bought that and put it in after cleaning.
