Captain Z Mobile Ops Commander USA 637 Posts	Posted - 01 Mar 2003 : 12:16:19 Today, in following up with a previous Trading Post thread, I met up with the seller to purchase 12, count 'em, 12 Macs. Here is what I scored: Mac SE/30 Missing HD. Has ethernet card. Serious screen burn in (you can see a big Appleshare symbol... must have been a server at some point) Color Classic Seems to be in good condition. Original logic board, unmodified video. Mac IIci Contains "Speedster" 68LC040 upgrade card. Also has High Resolution Video Card. Looks like 200MB HD (1/2 height). Mac IIfx Contains 10Base-T NuBus ethernet card. Also has High Resolution Video Card. Performa 467 - aka, LC III+ 160MB HD, 8MB RAM Performa 475 80MB HD, 4MB RAM... appears that HD was replaced August 2001. Case is closer to the LC III+ form factor, not the LC 475/Quadra 605 form with the MicroQuadra Feets. UMAX SuperMac C500/160 1.2GB HD (SCSI?), CD-ROM, unknown RAM. Has ZIF socketed 603e card. Good condition. Power Computing PowerBase 180 48MB RAM, 1GB SCSI HD? The processor card was the original 180MHz 603e card, but I replaced it with the CarrierZIF card from my 7500 (broken motherboard?). It is now running a G3/350 inside. Powerbook Duo 270c Screen damaged (he sat on it ). I plan on transplanting the 270 logicboard into my 230 so I can get a full FPU. Update: unable to transfer logicboard. Video connector on logicboard different. I will on the other hand move the HD over. Powerbook 540c Missing HD. I plan on transplanting PPC upgrade, RAM upgrade, and HD from my damaged PB 520c. Update: transfered PPC upgrade, RAM, and HD over from 520c. Final config: Powerbook 540c/PPC (40MB RAM, 320MB HD, 100MHz) Performa 6200 Supposedly damaged, but I suspect otherwise. Could be usable in future. No HD. Power Macintosh 8100/80, G3/220 upgraded All I know about it is that it has a Sonnet Cresendo/NuBus upgrade inside, and 24-bit Apple video card. Has potential So overall, it's a good haul for a day trip up (150 miles round trip). Got all these for $175 (most of the cost is for the 8100/G3). Pictures will follow once I get them all opened up and cataloged. This brings my total number of Macs in my household to 52. ------------------ Captain Z - Mobile Operations Commander 68K Macintosh Liberation Army 31 68K Macs Liberated Visit Captain Z's Starbase of EV Stuff Edited by - Captain Z on 03 Mar 2003 01:22:38

All the little extras (G3 upgrade, Speedster, hi-res video card, ethernet cards, etc.) are especially good -- those upgrades can be hard to find these days.
