Anyone want two "Team OcUK Stomp Monster" case badges?

Sorting out a box of stuff earlier I came across these - probably won't mean anything to newer members but some people will remember the Stomp Monster:

If you want one (or two) let me know (email in Trust) and I'll send them on

Haha those are classic. I think I can probably do without them, though ...

Too geeky to resist. I've mailed you with my work address.

I still remember when that thing overtook me in classic SETI - it had 17 motherboards at that point IIRC.

Sorry, my email address is a little flaky at the moment it seems - can you resend to

A picture for those who never saw it:

And check out the Stompinator, was owned and run by a previous member:

Apologies for the large pictures, smaller ones just didn't do them justice

Wasn't around then but that looks immense!

What where the specs and I take it that was just running S@H back in the day?

Awesomely outrageous. Both the badges and the Monster itself. Look at the size of those capacitors!

How much would you love to do the same thing with Q6600's + 8800 GPU's

Try to keep it under 3KW

If I had a credit card and perhaps some way of paing it back, sure why not

After all, my landlord pays the electric

Badges? We don't need no stinkin badges.

Pay it back? Just borrow, borrow, borrow until eventually everything collapses in on itself.

What you gonna do? Pirate them?

I've still got four of those I think (one used). Will see if I can find them (probably not going to be quick). If I can, and there's interest. How about a charity auction?

Sure, I'm game. As long as it goes to the cause.
