OK!!! I have recieved a package from that uncle that i have told some of you about (the one that had at one point an army of Mac Plusses in his basement!) has mailed me a G4 tower. ok.. now there is no keyboard, nor mouse, i have no money to buy any at this time.
soo, i was wondering if anybody would donate some... I have around $10 as a reward/payment/cover shipping however this generous person would like to call it. Thanks to anybody that offers.

He just gave you a G4!!!!

Do you know what specs are?
I have a Pro Keyboard that has some keys that dont work that I could send you. (I spilled some water on it) The keys that dont work (iThink) are:Left shift, left control, left option, left command, z, space and maybe x. Some of these may work im not sure.

Though it has some broken keys it would be a keyboard to use. :shrug:

well as far as i can tell, its...

a Dual 533MHz G4 Tower
512MB RAM
40GB HD
CD Burner

The outer plastic casing is missing and i only have the metal inner casing, but oh well. (a new case would be nice someday methinks)

Chris, I'd love that partially working keyboard! heh, i wonder how much shipping would cost...

wow... I would LOVE an uncle like that also!!! :)

If I had something I could send you I would... but nothing is unpacked and everything would have a use anyway...

DUAL 533!!

COOL!

that would make a great IW (but so would everything)

Well, thanks for all of you that offered equiptment! however in agreeing to work for my parents for a while to pay them back... they bought a keyboard and mouse for me! I am on my G4 right now! Its nice so far, even though i really need a better monitor! 14" is WAY too small!
