OT - laptop battery & memory wanted
mcerd1 - 22/2/11 at 09:35 PM

anyone got any old SODIMM's

I'm after at least 1 512Mb pc133 and/or a 256Mb or 512Mb pc100 (for two different old laptops to live in the garage)
I can do a certain amount of swapping around so I can be a bit flexable - so what have you got ?

(I know I can buy them uesd/new on ebay/amazon for £5-15, but I'd rather give the money to someone here )


also where can I get half decent batteries for old laptops without spending a fortune ?
(ASUS L2000D and Panasonic CF-37 toughbook if that helps)

cheers
-Robert

Aha, so it is. Also explains why it didn't work in the intended machine...

McLannahan: any time I'm not in any hurry to sort these out

Pat: I'm not sure I've got the right number for you (lost few numbers when my phone died )

the DDR's / DDR2's and DDR3's are all 200 pin ones (but not compatable with each other)
the older DIMM's are 144 pin
