I live in Los Angeles CA and am looking to donate or just give the following
computer
1. Dell 570 good working condition. Purchased new from Dell in 2010?
2. AMD Athlon II 2x 260 CPU
3. ATI 500MB Internal graphics card
3. 8GB RAM
4. 350GB Internal HDD
5. Freshly installed copy of Ubuntu 12.04 x64. I did install a few free
software apps from the store which can of course easily be uninstalled
6. Dell Wired Keyboard and Mouse
Monitor and Speakers not included
Reason for the donation. I am a Windows user though over the years I have
used Ubuntu on multiple computers. Anyway I just
purchased a new Windows 8.1 computer. The AMD originally came with W7
and I upgraded it to W8 about a year ago. However, there a number of
issues with running W8 on a computer with the Athlon II 2x 2xx CPU
including the fact that W8 can not be upgraded. So after I recently
decided that I wanted all the computers on my small network running on
W8.1 I had no choice but to purchase a new computer to replace the AMD
running W8.
I do not have the space nor he need for the AMD computer as a result of
the purchase of the new W8.1 computer. So I decided to donate/give the
AMD computer but without my legally purchased Micosoft/Windows
licensed software. I don't like transferring ownership of licensed
software.
So yesterday I replaced W8 with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on the AMD. Hence the
clean installation of Ubuntu 12.04. I had installed and used Ubuntu on
several computers in the past so it was no big deal to install of
Ubuntu. The install wiped Windows so Ubuntu 12.04 is the only OS
currently on the AMD computer.
There are no strings or conditions attached
except I will not ship the computer. I will only transfer it in a mutually
agreed upon
public location in the Hollywood area during the day time. If anyone is
interested just contact me by email and we can make the
preliminary arrangements for the time and place of the transfer per the
conditions noted above in blue. This offer is for a limited time only. After
that I will just give the computer to a computer repair business in the
Hollywood area.
This offer is not on a first come basis. Please state your reason for wanting
or needing the computer and if more than one person is interested I will decide
whom to reply to based upon the content of their email.
Have a nice day
Mike
