BALUG resources/giveaways/wanted/... (hardware, CDs/DVDs,
books/publications, ...)
We typically have various giveaway items at BALUG meetings. We'll
likely have at least the below plus additional items.
CDs/DVDs/ISOs, etc. - have a look here:
https://www.wiki.balug.org/wiki/doku.php?id=balug:cds_and_images_etc
Donations of blank or +-RW media, USB flash, or funding thereof,
also appreciated. See the above URL for details (and the inventory
(qty.) of what we specifically have "burned" and available on-hand does
also frequently change).
Hardware, etc. wanted/offered!
Got some (computer, etc.) hardware, etc. you're looking to give
away or acquire (or if not free, well below current fair market value),
and locally? We have a wiki page to list that - so ... see what's
offered, wanted, etc.!
https://www.wiki.balug.org/wiki/doku.php?id=balug:offered_wanted_hardware_e…
(And I'm definitely pushing the Brother printer/scanner/... and the Dell
Dimension 8400 - they'll likely become e-cycle waste if they don't get
adopted in relatively near future)
Books and other titles!
have a peek here:
