On the contrary, he's very lucky it's not a ///+, as an earlier /// is probably rarer (Not sure about this though, I don't know the production numbers for each version) You're a very lucky man Wood-e! I'd kill for a ///!

Nice! I thought Apple managed to nick all those Li-ion packs. Hang on to that for sure, eh?

I wish I had a Store-room! It'd make collecting a lot easier (and neater...)

Some Ditto drives seem to be compatible with Travan tapes (ones not specifically marked for Ditto's), if you have some of them, they might be of use. Though Travan tapes and the requisite drives always seem to be apart from one another (you buy/find some tapes, and there's no drive, or you...

Thanks, these are the kinds of conquests I love, finding machines that were once loved, then forgotten. And finally liberated from their neglect, and given a good home. Well, I have some shelving for parts and smaller systems (like compacts). Other things, like servers, get put in specific...

Today I responded to a Kijiji Ad that said there was a store room with "some" apple stuff in it. After going into the store room, I found the following: 2 x Classic II's -with User guides 1 x LC 475 -with User guide 1 x IIsi -with manuals 2 x Performa 6360CD's 2 x PowerMac 7200/120's 1 x...

I don't find a whole lot of 2.5", but I have a couple laying around here. I might also throw in an 80GB 1.8" drive (from an iPod!), in a 2.5" adapter. The Lombard now has 10.3.9 on it, in addition to 9.2.2. Though the 4GB Drive is getting cramped....

Today I picked up the following: -A Powerbook G3 Wallstreet. 233Mhz, 160MB of RAM, 2GB Hard disk. Running OS 9.2 -A Powerbook G3 Lombard. 333Mhz/512K 384MB of RAM. 4GB Hard disk. Running OS 9.2 -A 13" Apple High-Resolution monitor (A bit scuffed) -A 17" Apple Multiple Scan 17 The...

Well, they didn't actually plug the ribbon cable in, and it looks ok. The hard Drive is missing, but I've got a few of those on hand, so no worries. Doesn't look like there's much RAM though.... :(

I found a Powerbook 1400c (Active matrix! and 133Mhz) at the recycler today. It's in rough shape, the screen has a couple dents and it's scuffed. but the really bizzare thing is this: Whoever disassembled this thing last must have been on drugs or something when they put the Keyboard back on...

Hmmmm, well, a Capacitor in the PSU decided to blow up. Repairable, but annoying. Lot's of smoke and noise though...

hehe, I agree with you Bunsen, though I myself am of a more recent vintage. That's one of the reasons I like the 820 series so much, they have this really period aesthetic that you really can't beat. It's a fine addition to my Collection. Now I just need to get an 8" drive Cabinet and I'll be...

Another Find. This time I've found a G4 Sawtooth Motherboard. No RAM or CPU, but I know where I can source a CPU from. This will probably end up in my B&W G3 as an upgrade

I received my Xerox 820-II in the mail today, all the way from a good friend and fellow collector in California. Firstly, the Xerox 820 is not a printer, it's a very old computer from Xerox. You can read about it here: http://www.old-computers.com/museum/photos.asp?t=1&c=487&st=1 12"...

Well, going through a pile of stuff from the recycler, I found what I think is a 7500 motherboard. It matches the pictures I've seen on the internet of it (it also says TNT on the board). I also found the processor card (PPC 604e) a week earlier, as matching floppy and hard drives for it. It has...

Wow! That's a lot of Mac's! What's the plan for them all? Or, more importantly, how will these fit in your house? Not a bad haul at all!

Hello to everyone, As promised, I'm doing updates every wednesday on wha I pull out of the Recycler.See this thread for details: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=9187 Anyhow, Today I've pulled out a great deal of stuff. Here's what I got: The Real prize: 1 x DEC RAID array. It's 4 feet tall, and FULL...

hehe, good video. Thanks

Hmmm, does the '94 Aerostar (not mine, a friends) I used to haul it count as a boat? :lol:

Well, it seems I'm on a roll lately as far as getting computer's goes. Today I managed to get the following from a guy who was moving. He listed it on Kijiji, so i pounced on it. I got it all for a flat price of $50, since it wouldn't all fit in his new house (This is a rough list, I haven't...
