I have one.I have already bought a new one but want to get rid of the old one. The company where I bought the new one want me to pay £9 to take the old one away! Well maybe this is the way people do things but I think my washing machine is worth money. It is a Hotpoint Performa 1100. Shall I post in the trading post? shaktiman Quadra 840av, prettymuchmaxedout8xcd drive

Does it have a 68k inside? Here in the colonies, there are places that will take old applicances for free. Your local phonebook or the adverts in the back of the paper might list such places if they have them. Otherwise, you could turn that old washing machine into a giant case hack and install every Mac you own inside it.

Is a Performa 1100 a PowerMac or a 68k?  ________________________

Yeah. There was only one problem with the hard drive: It'd take a while to spin up, and it wouldn't even get to 5400RPM."**** em" - Jobs in regards to customers

If the motor still works you could do something with that too, my parents use one as a make shift sander IIRC--------

Actually if you can fix something like that you can save yourself good money when washing. Or at least for those mini ones when you live in an aprtment.I am myself looking for a small Bar Fridge I can put in my room, I'm more a night person and when I am up I don't always like tip toeing to get stuff from the fridge like a drink or something, so I can just keep my own stuff. Plus a small washer would be nice. Here is costs 1.60 per load. :(
