I'm located in middle Tennessee.

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. At least if someone comes along and has something to give, they'll have choices already set up.

I will check the wiring and see if I can support a few more rigs, or run another line. If I can house some extra rigs, I will be happy to do that at the cost of electricity.

I may have some 8800GSes that may need a home. My dad won't let me keep the folder in the house (too much heat) and the garage it's in can hit 100+ easy. The thing keeps crashing...but I'm not sure if it's the heat or something else. If it's the heat, I'm going to have to find some other arrangements.

Awesome, thanks for being the first person that may actually be sending out parts to someone. As you can see, you have a pretty nice choice so far of who to send them to.

Hopefully others will start doing the same!

Send them back to me. They aren't liking the warm weather and want to return to Michigan.

I'll be sending the GPUs to Mort. He sold them to me in the beginning...might as well send them to a home I know they'll be taken well care of
