Thanks to nuvision I was lucky enough to purchase an ANS 700. Its been a dream computer of mine for a while now, but its got a few issues.
First off it's missing the SCSI CD ROM Drive- if any one has a spare please let me know.
Secondly it is missing the key and thus I cant open it up to look inside.
It also has the wrong CPU, its got the 132MHZ from an ANS 500 instead of the 200MHZ. Also the power supply is dead. I definitely need to look into the power supply issue first. I have a feeling replacing the caps might solve that issue but I cant confirm until I get a key cut to open up the server.
On the bright side its an ANS 700 and is pretty rare. It also has virtually zero yellowing and the 103lb beast survived UPS shipping from GA to MA. The sale also included a bunch of the ANS software, but it looks like MacGarden has most of it. One of the floppy drives included is not on MacGarden
Its definitely a project but for the amount I payed I know it will be worth it. If you have any of the parts listed above please contact me as I am eager to get this restoration started.
