    Picked up a few macs, don't know where to start

    I would love to do that. I bet the university had a bunch of good shit on there. I hope to have all the batteries out within 1-2 weeks. I am working on the quadra 700 now. I am going to give them all a basic cleaning when im removing the batteries and once thats doing ill go from there
