COOL!!! Once I tried to convince my parents to get me a Duo from Sun Remarketing (yeah.. bad idea huh?) so that I could dissect it and put it back together somewhat backwards in a case of LEGOs.....Official 68k videographer Official MLA TourGuide "I'm just a normal computer geek who somehow landed a social life"

An EMACHINE?????? What do you mean an EMACHINE??????

Who DIDN'T want a B&W G3? Those were sweet machines back in the day! I just LOVED it's case. After a while the B&W case makes the G4 case look dull and boring...but then again it's probbaly because i haven't seen a B&W IRL for ages. -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 7 Number of Contraband (PPC) Liberated from the Dumpster: 1 |

.ME remembers the ppc emulation thread....I like USB hard drives Bring back the JAZZ and the SyQyest (thingies) I wanted one of those Castlewood ORB thingies... USB, IDE and SCSI 2.2 GB cartriges were like only $30 each that was when a 4 GB HDD was $200
good deal considering one of those was more than my whole HDD back then (first 7300 owning) Official 68k videographer Official MLA TourGuide "I'm just a normal computer geek who somehow landed a social life"

I don't know... it was like... Castlewood systems or something....I should look into that because IIRC there was a firewireversion sometime soon or something... I'd gladly get a few of those for all my macs if they still existed and were cheap... 2.2 GB!!!!!
