    Powerbook G4

    Sweet! :approve: One of these days I'd like to get myself a 1.5 or 1.67 GHz PowerBook G4 as an example of the last and fastest of the PPC PowerBooks. Not in the budget now though. What screen size did you get? I'm not sure which I want, I kind of think a 17" since I think it's too big for a...

    Apple CD 300 External =)

    Upon closer review of the second picture, is the metal case get bent up from a side impact or was it like that already? Or am I seeing things? (Don't forget to leave space for the air vent on the Classic! :p )

    Apple CD 300 External =)

    Well, at least we know they're tough... The fact that the case is mostly metal except for the faceplate probably helped. I'd make sure the feedback you leaves mentions this. While their detailed star rating system allows you to rate the speed of shipping unless it was free or a local pickup...

    eBay's Cheapest, FUGLIEST, FeetsLess 6100/60 . . .

    I was thinking the soft thing would be the poor sucker that it was thrown at. :lol: Extra RAM is always a good score.

    eBay's Cheapest, FUGLIEST, FeetsLess 6100/60 . . .

    Very cool finds in a very ugly and beat up 6100. I've had the rear case tabs break off, but I haven't gotten one THAT ugly yet. Looks like it got thrown out the window of a moving car at someone that somebody didn't like. Maybe it did. I wish I could say I had matching feet to offer, but I...

    512k in the house

    Why thank you! 8-) Can you tell I have years of sales and customer service experience? :lol: I like having "Road Apples" and "Best of Breed" in my collection, I think they both make the most interesting examples.

    512k in the house

    Jeez Scott, make it tough on me... OK I'll see what I can do since I love going off topic. Performa 600: It along with the IIvi and IIvx gave us the first internal CD-ROM drove option, so that's pretty cool. It also marked the beginning of the Performas, along with the 200 and 400, and was the...

    Lombard

    Nice acquisition. I very seriously considered taking that off BGoin's hands. I'm glad to hear it got a good home! I just couldn't justify it right now... Someday I would like to find a nice 500 MHz Pismo, since that was the most powerful of that design PowerBook, which I've wanted ever since...

    512k in the house

    I've got a soft spot the 512k and ke. I like them because they have the look and feel of the original Macintosh, but don't command the collector price. I've got one in the office, a 512k M0001W to be specific. Due to a lack of space it does not have a permanent home on my desk, but every now and...

    My first big Conquest!

    Those are odd keys on the Keyboard II...I thought the letters looked bigger when I first looked but dismissed it and only mentioned the colored ones. Now I notice the blank keys, "Erase"instead of "delete", and use of capitolization like "Shift" unlike the two examples I have here without going...

    My first big Conquest!

    I love those extended keyboards. Not sure if I like the first gen for their "clickier" keys or the second gen for the adjustable tilt better. And you got an external SCSI CD drive...I know you wanted one of those! What's with the colored keys on the Keyboard II?

    iMac Intel freebee

    Whoa! Nice save... Sounds like you could tuck it behind an external monitor as an extra cheap fix. I bet you can get parts here or eBay without breaking the bank and have yourself a decent iMac on the cheap.

    My first big Conquest!

    Awesome! I too am excited to see the pictures. The only thing better than free stuff is tons of free stuff! 8-)

    PowerBook 1400cs for $33.30 shipped . . .

    Someone's making out like a bandit on eBay! I don't know which deal is sweeter, this or the 150. I think this one...the 1400 is a neat PowerBook. I should dig mine out.

    PowerBook 150 for $32.49 shipped . . .

    Excellent score. I'm glad to see a 68k going on eBay for a reasonable price. Especially to a deserving home. 8-)

    second iMac G4

    I really like the design of the G4 iMacs. I've got a 1st gen 800 MHz 17" that I bought new shortly after they came out, and have given it a home on my desk since. It's sleeping on the desk in the office right now. Screen tint is a little yellowed and the arm isn't quite as tight as it once was...

    Intel Xserve

    Congrats and good luck on the site! I haven't been watching Xserve prices, so I have no idea on price either. Cheaper than a Mac Pro with similar power, last time I checked...that's for sure.

    Ignition sequence in 3... 2... 1..! We have ignition! :D

    Neat-o. I like computers with keys, like my old DuoDock and Quadra 950. "What do you drive?" "An Apple II." 8-)

    For the Apple collector who has everything

    Very cool. I can't say I'd shell out $8000 for it, but maybe someone will. Prototypes are tough to predict prices on, they're usually best to list in a traditional auction and let the market determine the price in my opinion. You can always put a reserve on it if you have a rock-bottom price in...

    My new (to me) SE/30!

    Good deal. What models did you hold onto from the IIsi out of curiosity?
