[SWLUG] Another free hardware offer

Hello y'all.

In the continuing saga of me clearing out stuff I've been sat on for
ages without using, I've got some more bits and pieces up for the
taking. (Sadly nobody wanted my CRT monitors last time around, so I'm
going to DROP THEM IN A LAKE AND KILL SOME SWANS WITH TOXINS! Or, erm,
pay to get them recycled.)

Currently cluttering up my attic, and the top of a cupboard in the office, are:

* a 15" TFT screen, about four or five years old. It works okay, it's
just a bit knackered looking. Probably good for tinkering with
computers and having a display on hand.
* an HP Deskjet 1220C - an A3 colour inkjet, about three or four years
old if memory serves me correctly. Works okay, works well with CUPS on
Linux (I had a machine running as a print server with it), but was too
expensive for us to run given the amount of printing we now have to
do. (My company has moved into kids' book publishing and running off
roughs for editors has taken its toll on our ink cartridges!)

As before, I can drop these off to interested parties in and around
Pontypridd and Cardiff. They're free but I would like to know what you
plan on using them for first, because if I get several requests the
most worthy wins. Also, any willing donations to the new "Buy Steve an
Asus Eee PC Fund" will be accepted ;)

Steve
