2x 3Com NETBuilder Remote Access.
2x CITAM Controlware (ISDN Terminal Adapter).
2x ATI (Allied Telesyn International) MC15 Ethernet Media Convertor.
1x Intel Netport Express XL.
1x 3Com Sonix Arpeggio Lite (Euro).
2x TEAC Laptop 24x CD rom (I don't have a laptop to test them).

I could (probably) use the (Black) floppy drives and PSU's from the 3Com NETBuilder Remote Access, and the LCD and caseing from the 3Com Sonix, but other than that I don't have a clue (Got cable for 3+ years).....well barely 3+ years:rolleyes: :p

Wreck them?
Garbage bin?

BTW: For certain features of the 3Com NETBuilder Remote Access you need to pay a license fee to 3Com.

Strip 'em?

I would try to sell the lap top CD drives in the classifides here. I've heard that you can buy a converter and use them in a nomal desktop. If this is true, then they would be perfect for people wanting to make a HTPC. Although lack of DVD capability kinda sucks.

I agree, but shipping these drives is probably too much (I'm in the Netherlands, I don't even have to make money, they can have them for free...well for shipping costs).

Maybe I should look for a convertor for the drives, manuf. date of both drives is December '99.

Put them in a Skeet thrower and see if you can shoot them with one shot.....
