siuko Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 We are a secondary school... But would be interested in some of the higher end ones if that is possible? Would it just be a case of paying the delivery costs?
HTCIT Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 Could do with the Acer Travelmate 4060 and Acer Travelmate 2000 if that is possible?

Would it just be a case of paying the delivery costs? Yer that should be fine mate, let me see how many we got first Yer should be just the delivery costs Edited September 23, 2010 by pritchardavid
pritchardavid Posted September 22, 2010 Author Posted September 22, 2010 Could do with the Acer Travelmate 4060 and Acer Travelmate 2000 if that is possible? Sure mate, How many you wanting? We have a few, just need to count how many we have tomorrow morning
Hightower Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 I'll take one of the P4 one's if possible.
wesleyw Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 We'll take as many of them as you want. We can collect too! wes
wesleyw Posted September 22, 2010 Posted September 22, 2010 (edited) We'll also take most computer equipment (well stuff you're throwing out before anyone says anything ) as we're getting lots of requests for basic IT provision and no budget for them. Wes Edited September 22, 2010 by wesleyw
3s-gtech Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 Will take anything of any spec here - our SEN dept make great use of them and someone lost half the chargers for theirs!
pritchardavid Posted September 23, 2010 Author Posted September 23, 2010 Ok updated first post guys So take your pick now If you cant collect we need the postage paid I belive
featured_spectre Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 (edited) I will take the lot (well not the RM one), and the PCMIA cards aswell if thats ok. We will organise collection from your school if you can give us the details. Edited September 23, 2010 by featured_spectre
siuko Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 I am happy to pass if its easier for one school to take all and collect. Thank you for such a great offer
wesleyw Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 Looks like a three way fight for all of them then Could you PM me your location so I have an idea where we would have to collect them from (Rough Area is fine for now) Wes
Hightower Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 Well, can I still opt for one of the P4 ones you have? If so let me know about postage etc
pritchardavid Posted September 23, 2010 Author Posted September 23, 2010 (edited) Are you all from schools? Think the boss will only give to a school Also how to you want the laptops? XP reinstalled? (with product key used from the bottom of the laptop) ubuntu installed? Just the hard drives wiped? Edited September 23, 2010 by pritchardavid
3s-gtech Posted September 23, 2010 Posted September 23, 2010 Would be happy with any of them (just one would be great), will pay postage. No need to install XP.

pritchardavid Posted September 27, 2010 Author Posted September 27, 2010 just waiting on the headteachers approval at the momment, then we decide what to give to people, might be able to give one or two out to other people, hopefully I'll be able to get an answer tomorrow nephilim, should be getting all or nearlly all if we give one or two out to the othere guys here, his school is most in need of them!

Not a problem thanks for getting back to us well then if the headteacher gives the go ahead then I do without and let nephilim have it. since his school really needs them. fingers are crossed for you nephilim
pritchardavid Posted September 27, 2010 Author Posted September 27, 2010 can't see her saying no, most of these laptops have sat around at least a year doing nothing! Ok nephilim If we get the say so tomorrow, what you you want done with the laptops? The basic installs? Adobe Flash, Adobe Shockwave, Adobe Air, Adobe Reader, Java, All Microsoft Updates Anything else, Open Office? Quicktime? Realplayer? 7Zip? Up to you, just let us know what you want installing Also each laptop can come with a carry case, we have like loads and loads of spare laptop cases!
featured_spectre Posted September 28, 2010 Posted September 28, 2010 Windows (as per OEM sticker on the machines) If you could do all the basics, along with Paint.net (if that is ok) and Pivot (I can supply the link)...Although both not a requirement before getting here. And each with a carry case would be exceedingly handy!
pritchardavid Posted September 28, 2010 Author Posted September 28, 2010 sorry couldnt talk to the boss today, everytime I went to the office they were boss or not yet Promise I'll collar them tomorrow (need to speak to them about other things anyway too)
