Nice deal but shipping is $23 for UPS Ground. Nice box to learn Linux or networking on though.

That's pretty cool that both the com ports are active. Makes it well worth the $10.

dual com ports will attract those who want an emulation setup. wonder what the speed of the processor is. probably sx/25.

Hey now, don't diss the dual com ports feature. My 933 Dell Dimension 4100 only got one on the IO shield :(. If you want to hook up the 2nd header, you'll have to use up a slot opening. What the hell was Dell thinking?

Pretty funny stuff. I just dismantled one of these. All I took out of it was the floppy drive. Everything else .... garbage.
