FBOX Donation Thread

Bollocks · 7th May 2003, 8:08 PM

I have made this the FBOX donation thread and changed the title from "Giveaway Week 2 Prize No Show!!!"

So far we have had a fantastic response to the FBOX donation appeal and I think it would be a good idea to keep it running indefinately. We have had 3 completed FBOX's worth of goodies donated and a 4th nearly there.

When the current Giveaway3 has finished we will have a "Beat The Box" competition to giveaway the FBOX's. All you have to do to be in the running is beat the FBOX's points production. Details will be released at a later stage.

Check out the

FBOX Donations so far.

If you can help with missing bits for the current FBOX's or have stuff that would help build another let us know.

Great if that turns out then its only a Mobo we need to get.

Bollocks,

Just to add to the prize (so the winner doesn't need another monitor etc), I can donate a KVM that I'm not using any more.
It's a Jaycar XC5063 (http://www1.jaycar.com.au/productVie...=&SUBCATID=423) without leads but I'm sure it'd be useful...

EDIT: and an extra CPU... an XP1600 that's been unlocked (think it does 1600MHz) with an AMD retail heatsink (courtesy of my win in giveaway 2)...

EDIT EDIT: have a 64M SDR stick that I can throw in too... only PC100 so should be okay for the Duron...

That CPU could come in handy if we get enough stuff for another FBOX.
