800-1000 for the notebook
Maybe the same for the desktop.

I'd suggest checking ebay for similar packages, then tacking on a few bucks becuase your stuff is probably in better shape.

Depends on where you plan on selling. I've sold a lot of stuff on hardware forums but full systems are rarely ever bought; t'd bet that you would find quite a few people interested in specific parts if you were to "part it out" though. If you're looking at eBay I think Zen's estimate sounds about right.

I know that I'd have some interest in the FX-60 :)

Yeah I did think about breaking it down and selling the parts too. I actually pulled a couple WD 500gb drives out of it that I will sell seperately.

I want to sell it locally to avoid all the shipping hassles. Will probably put them on craigslist.
