Hi. I picked up a nice 520c for $15 off eBay. It wasn't tested, but after I got it yesterday I hooked it up to my 520 power adapter and powered it up. It had no HDD, so I swapped in my drive from my 520. I found out it in fact has a 117mhz PowerPC upgrade (which is awesome), however it's slow as molasses. I'm pretty sure it needs some sort of extension to get it working properly, however when I downloaded what I thought was needed (I think this is a NewerTech upgrade), it doesn't even load the extension or control panel. It has MacOS 8.1 installed. I also think I infected it with some virus when I was installing a bunch of stuff last night, and its replicating all of the desktop icons 200 times so far and trying to enable file sharing on its own. Wonderful...
