Did some work for a friend of mine who, understanding my mania, offered to trade her old Powerbooks for some of my very reasonable pay. Picked up a working Powerbook 520c which is an absolute delight to use once you get used to the teensy trackpad and the very bouncy keyboard. Also picked up a 1 GHz 15" G4 Powerbook that won't start. It sounds like the optical and hard drives are spinning up, but the screen is dark and there's no startup chime.
The rest of the haul comes next weekend and they should round out this little collection nicely. The downside is that I'm still collecting while I need to downsize. We'll see which ones are the most fun and stick with them. The other ones will have to go, so stay tuned.
