Mostly my stuff in Aachen, a few bits belongs to Munich
    area friendsINDEX
 
 Preamble
      
      
        
          I & others have surplus equipment, some to sell,
          & some to give away &/or swap with some friends .I also want to buy some other equipment.
I do not buy or sell stuff for a living, ( I am a Consultant for
          a Computer Company
          )This page is just a convenience to list & maybe
          shift stuff I don't need.
            None of it has ever been offered on 
            
           
 
        
          HP Network
          ScanJet 5 & 6 aka HP 9100C If you've got one for
          sale, or know of an office (ideally in Aachen area ) with
          one lying around unused, probably shoved in an office
          corner (as HP originals boot off NT networks that
          businesses are migrated away from) 
          
         Money & Trust ?!
        Thieves & forgers (of goods & money) & loonies
        etc all lurk on the net. I know people who've been ripped
        off. Any thinking of trying scams on me will just waste
        time: I'm Very Distrustful/ Paranoid ! Techniques: Face to
        face; cash; no over invoicing; waiting till cheques are
        cleared and can't be revoked; proving equipment works.

        Various PCMCIA cards
          Some of the cards in the picture above I might still
          need, most not.
Additionally I now also have other cards not
          pictured, but listed below, for which I have No
          transducer/dongle for. For those, I'm both interested in
          selling cards AND trading my surplus cards for your
          surplus transducer/dongle, (ie if you have eg burnt out
          cards, but good transducer/dongle, Do contact me

          the external transducer/dongle. 2 pictures I've seen on
          web show different transducer/dongles, one with coax

          2nd UTP, no room for coax..
 
 Libretto 70 CT Original Floppy set for MS-Windows
        95
          - NOT the Libretto itself, which is NOT for sale. Just
          the floppy set available. I
          installed FreeBSD instead  as I do NOT like Micro$oft.
          Lots of people sell Librettos, doubtless some lose the
          install floppy set, & or get infested with Micro$oft
          Viruses. This is your chance to get a new floppy set to
          recover from (though I consider Micro$oft a pain, &
          recommend you try FreeBSD  instead
          ( 32,517 @ 2020-08-24 free
          programs  - Free !). I can also install &
          configure FreeBSD on Librettos - or other computers - for
          a commercial consultancy fee.
        
          
 
 "PS Re Software marked: For Distribution Only with a
        new PC" & Software You purchase somewhere, can't read
        the license, then have to click "Yes I agree ..." before it
        will work.
          Far as I recall from my UK University days & from my
          reading of various odd "law books for amateurs" &
          industry magazines etc, this is, to use an American
          phrase apposite to American law: "Bullshit", it's just
          American corporations trying yet again to impose their
          law over ours. American residents might be restricted to
          not resell software, we Europeans are Not, ('except
          Micro$oft might cut off your supply if you'r a dealer -
          but they risk being fined yet again by the European Union  , for monopoly
          infringement, each time they get too pushy ;-). 
           English law anyway. Precedent I would refer to is:
          when NCP lost the appeals court decision decades back:
          Some driver had a brick fall on his car. Lower court
          ruled" "Tough, NCP have a sign saying tough, so tough".
          Overturned on Appeal. Judge ruled any extra clauses not
          available to reader until after car park fee paid, were
          invalid. So NCP changed their car parks so all their "Not
          our fault if .." clauses are now readable from car before
          paying money. After the court ruling, Canterbury NCP car
          park acquired an escape lane after notice & before
          payment, built shortly after that appeal court loss, so
          one could decline to accept (if one blocked the queue
          long enough to read all the guff). German law: Someone told me in 2009, as far as she
          knew, in Germany one had maybe 10 mins to leave the car
          park if one did not accept terms only visible after
          entry. (With poor customer rights in Germany, & often
          hostile bavarian language in Munich, don't rely on that,
          get corroboration, which confirmation
          or refutation) I would welcome. Many excremental American legal clauses with which
          software is sold internationally (even bundled hardware
          eg laptops) seem some cocktail mix of American legalese/
          bullshit, immoral, illegal in EU or UK, & or
          un-enforceable. Don't believe such exretia, until you ask
          a lawyer in whichever of 170+ sovereign independent
          countries of purchase, if actually legally binding.

 Modem: Discovery Datatronics 9632am
            (Purchased in Germany). It weighs 1.6 Kg including
            modem, 9V 1.5A transformer & booklet. No original
            box, I'd have to find/ make one to post  in which would weigh a bit. Assume
            < 2Kg inc packing when you look it up on http:
          
 Modem Escom. Stands vertically
            Bookshelf style (shown horizontal to save space on this
            page). Purchased in Germany, but never used. (I mention
            that 'cos the Germans once had some law mandating their
            modems be limited on auto redial capability, so that if
            software blew, you wouldn't drive someone berserk,
            ringing his phone non stop . I think the mod. was to
            only allow a few dial attempts, then back off for a few
            minutes. You still wouldn't get much sleep though if
            someone else's modem software went wrong. A near
            pointless law, unless it was NOT motivated to protect
            the consumers, but either to protect the phone network
            from dialing overload by too frequent dialing, or to
            trade obstruction/ `protection' to protect the sales
            market of German modem manufacturers against cheaper
            international modems, (American modems were a Lot
            cheaper, & though early American & European
            modems worked to different standards, in later years
            when we got up to 9600 bit/sec & beyond, things had
            standardised).
           
 Modem: US Robotics Sportster VI
            Purchased in UK. (Thus no German dial restrictions).

 Cells from Battery pack.
              I took the lid off the battery & checked all cell
              voltages & they were all fine, so felt sure it
              was my charge regulator in the laptop that had gone,
              & was feeding a false level to the
              microprocessor, so the laptop simply wasn't turning
              on it's charge circuity. Externally charged, I
              recall, the battery was just fine, so I strongly felt
              the problem lay within the laptop, but I already had
              2 newer laptops, & it's a swine to disassemble
              the 4600C in enough bits to get & unfold all the
              circuit cards (stacked in a heap at back of laptop,
              & try to figure which analogue regulator
              component was faulty. I just couldn't be bothered to
              reassemble that laptop, dumped it & just kept the
              bits.

          Sendlinger Tor Dec 1985. Still in good condition, rarely
          used. Obviously I'd accept Much less though. Annoyingly,
          these chains are much better than new chains one can buy
          now, like I have on my new car: I couldn't find any to
          buy with square ice grippers for my new car !(One chain has a link snapped on the tightening
          chain of one chain of one pair. Either needs welding,
          else convince me to sell you 1 set & maybe throw the
          other set in free, so you have a spare chain) 
           Used on my old car's Tyres"175 / 70 R 13". also quoted
          quoted by RUD as good for

           Caution for Subaru owner & other electric compressed
          air suspension cars: 
           
            Do Not use cigarette lighter socket via ignition key on
            a jacked up car with electric air suspension (such as
            on many Subaru), when a wheel is off, cos the car will
            push down the loose axle & cause damage. Only use
            the crocodile clips direct to battery.
