I'm not sure this totally qualifies as a conquest, but I'm happy...
I went to the Trenton Computer Festival on Saturday and got a couple of nice items for cheap.
The first is a Sawtooth G4- 400mhz, no drives or memory but complete otherwise; decent cosmetically for $15. I'd been wanting to get some kind of AGP G4 for a while, but most seemed to cost more for shipping than I wanted to bother with.
To complement the AGP G4, I found a PC AGP Radeon 7000 (probably an OEM card, 32mb, VGA only) for $3. This morning I finished flashing it for the Mac.
I moved over the memory and drives from my B&W G4, so now I have a QE-capable G4 with 896mb RAM running Tiger.
As a result of this, I'll be probably be putting up a posting in the Trading Post in a couple of days for some items that have fallen out of the recent updates. In the mean time, if anybody has an interest in a G3/500 ZIF, AGP Rage 128 Pro, or Beige G3 DT (400mhz), drop me a PM and we'll talk.
