Faaark, knew it'd turn up some day. This is the original 180MHz R5000 CPU module for the #SGI O2 I put out for #KerbsideCleanup. Found it in a box whilst looking for something to stow other crap in. #RetroComputing #FreeToGoodHome #Brisbane

A ha, don't need this anymore... someone has the computers this thing would connect to. You can use this with some modern graphic cards, but it really wants a Sync-on-Green signal. #Brisbane #KerbsideCleanup #retrocomputing

Thought the Octane was bad, bloody hell these big CRTs are heavy.

Okay, the homebrew 13W3-DB15 cable just disappeared… but then the fellow who picked it up leaves a whole pile of plastic debris from the Indigo2. (yeah, the cases are brittle!)

If you pick something up from the #KerbsideCleanup, please don't leave a mess!

Just rounded up a whole heap of Plextor 12× caddy-loader CD-ROM drives and CD caddies (remember those?) #retrocomputing
