They might not be quite as plentiful as in years past, but great deals do still exist! I found this semi-rough but functional Mac 512k at a local junk shop today - it was priced at $60 but they accepted a $50 offer.
Although it did not come with a keyboard and mouse, it DID come with something very unusual inside, which I’ve always wanted to play with: a Levco MonsterMac 2MB + SCSI upgrade! There were a variety of RAM and SCSI upgrades offered for these 1st / 2nd gen Macs, but the MonsterMac always stood out to me, both for its clever design, and for its cooler-than-average name. Excited to get this monstrous machine fixed up!
