LC 475 Local Pickup

[jkoci]

Just won a LC 475 for $8 on ebay. Local pickup. It looks like a keyboard and mouse are included. The LC style case is a favorite of mine so I couldn't pass on it. It will add to my LC collection nicely.

Local pickup saves a ton of cash, just not that many Mac users around here.

That's a good buy! The LC 475 is the fastest of the pizza boxes and is a brilliant 68K Mac for playing around with.

I was just contacted by the seller. They offered the two 660avs from a previous auction and another 475 (a total of four machines) for local pickup at $20. I decided to go for it.

Yeehaw for pizza joy!

I think I have the 475 motherboard stuck in one of my ugly LC 3 cases. I replaced the 68040/25 with a CPU with FPU and glued a heatsink on it.

I picked up all four machines this morning. The two LCs and one of the 660s work. The other 660 seems to have no video. The two 660s have cracked cases as well as one of the LCs. I took the full 040 chip out of the dead 660 and put it in the best LC. It also got a 2gb hard drive out of my LC III and a 32mb ram simm. Both the LCs can with ethernet cards. With a new pram battery the upgraded LC booted right up. Maybe I'll take board out of the LC with the broken case and put it in my LC III. That machine whistles at times so it seems at least part of its board is going anyway.
