I lost a power supply today on one of my AMD Phenom machines, by the time I was done swapping supplies around to get everything running I no longer have a power supply for one of my P4 boards.
After thinking about it, I've decided that I'll just get rid of these 2 boards before I'm tempted to start them up again. SO:
For Sale Cheap (ie- free )-
1 Abit VT7 (socket 478) MB with 3.0 GHz P4 (hyper-treading), 512 ram, GeForce FX5200 graphics card, and manuals. Note- This board does not like to run Windoze (M$ and the HW get into a fight over the graphics slot which causes frequent BSODs), Linux runs fine. If you beg nicely, I might include a 8 GB HDD with Linux (Arch Linux with Boinc as a service) installed on it.
1 Abit IS7 (socket 478) MB with 3.0 GHz P4 (hyper-treading), 512 ram, GeForce FX5200 graphics card, and manuals.
No power supplies, cases, or HDDs, just the "guts". Note- Both graphics cards are dual-headed AGP cards.
Send me a PM with your address, and I'll send them to you for the cost of shipping.

OK- I got the VT7 running again: http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/show_host_detail.php?hostid=29795. I'll let it run a few units overnight, replace the CMOS battery, and then box them up.

Squeezing a few last WUs out of it?

Actually just wanted to make sure they still worked, then haven't been run since last winter. I'm kind of glad I did, found the CMOS battery was dead in one of them. That would have bummed someone out with they got the boards expecting them to work.

Those things are way better than what I've got and you gave them away?
What do you consider to be your good stuff?
I posted a "what have you got" thread last year and I'm still suffering the pangs from that!
