Thanks to everyone that came, ate pizza, drank beer and took away our old kit.

For those that couldn't make it I'm still trying to get rid of the remainder, 
and here's the full list.  We are taking cash or cheque donations to benefit 
Macmillian Cancer Support, and everything is given-away as "working to the 
best of our knowledge" :)  

We did price pretty much everything at between £5-£25 but for now, the best 
offers of donations for each item received before next Tuesday will get the 
kit; just let me know what you're interested in.  When I've confirmed that 
you've got something next week, donations should be in cash or cheque 
to "Macmillan Cancer Support" and posted to Bytemark at The Raylor Centre, 
James Street, York, YO10 3DW.

Here's the list:

[!] means heavy or bulky (i.e. collect from York, we can't easily post it 
unless you want to donate a lot :) )

Rack-mount kit:

    with power supplies

   1U rack-mount fan tray

The rest:
 APC desktop-grade UPS (about 10 minutes of power for a standard PC setup)

  device)
 [*!] Celeron system, 1GB, huge full tower case,
