Here are the specs and history of this machine:

I got a case from a friend who was throwing out this 14slot ISA PeeCee server. I stole the case, took off the back panel, and hacked up a half decent back panel from some EMI shielding (so very resourceful ).

I then put a rev c mobo, rev a rom, beige G3 into it. Over time, it ended up with the following specs:
233mhz ZIF
448mb RAM
4 GB SCSI drive
5 GB ATA drive(maybe 40GB ATA)
24x CD Drive
floppy
TWO 100base ethernet cards
standard sound perch card

All this sitting in a 4u, black, lockable rackmount case. I will include a 300mhz ZIF, but the machine gets too hot in its current, almost fanless (the one fan in the 300w ATX PSU is all there is) setup. If you add the 300mhz ZIF, you most surely will need a fan. a VERY large fan is built into the case, with an air filter, but it is too noisy for me to keep in my room.

I will also entertain some deals involving mini-itx PeeCees (that run linux!) for trade-ish ideas.

I'll just tell you what I paid for my 9500/G3 [for your reference]

•It came with a [bad: died after a week or so] 4GB SCSI HD [Quantum] [supposedly high RPM]
•207 RAM
•ATI Mach64 2MB video card [could be upgraded to 4mb]
•USB card [two port]
•24x NEC CD drive [required CDT]
•keyboard, mouse, and power cable
•Sonnets 300mhz G3

Price on ebay: $175

The machine is still in use, so it isn't exactly the best/easiest to take pictures of. If you are really observant, some things are different than the post says, so let me clarify.
There are two drives in this machine right now, neither are the one you will get, you WILL get ONE 24x CD drive, and two bezels incase you change the 5.25" config. The rackmoutn tabs are also not present in this picture, but they will be included with the proper screws (they hinder it fitting on the shelf i have it on)
The second enet card will also be added, as well as the official G3 heatsink.

Also, depending on timing of things, as well as if it added more of an incentive, I may put a 40GB HD instead of the 5, depending on when I get my 45GB SCSI in and such.

email me or post if you want/need more details. I will include a keyboard(no mouse, i don't have enough as is), power cord, three ethernet cords, and a 14" apple monitor (just pay shipping on it, purely optional)

I have arrived on a (sort of) price for this thing. Without the 40GB HD, I would assume the whole thing would be acceptable around $200 + S&H *or* $240 **including** shipping, whichever is cheaper. If you want the 40GB, I am asking $220 + S&H *or* $255 **including** shipping, again cheaper first.

Hope that helps,

BTW, penguin, isn't that the server that all of your stuff is on?

like... "yeah"

Foetoid: I *may* consider selling the case seperate, but that is going to be a while down the line. So far I have had no one interested in the machine at all

How much would you sell just the 300mhz ZIF [and I am correct in thinking that it would work in a 233 G3 DT, right?]
