Liberated this giant Mac collection last weekend, http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2756875684&category=26746&rd=1 . it's in german, but it should be easy to understand. Just look at the pictures!
The Quadra 950 with CD-ROM and 256MB RAM is really cool, but i think 128MB is really enough. So i equipped two Quadra 700 with 64MB RAM and thats awesome too ;). Sadly the IIsi seems to have a broken power supply and won't boot up until i find a new one..

That's awesome, what do you plan on doing with all that stuff?

What's the little stubby mac to the right on top of the tower?

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it sure beats a blank stare for starting a conversation.

Because of my only vague understanding of basic german (I'm in German I class...)

I only halfway understand this:
Zum Schluß möchte ich nochmal auf den Quadra 950 zu sprechen kommen, dessen Speicher mit 256MB voll ausgebaut ist. Diese 256MB setzen sich aus 16 der begehrten und teuren 16MB 30pin SIMMs zusammen. Die alleine sind schon (auch heute noch) ein Vermögen wert. Auf diesem Gerät ist übrigens ein frisches A/UX 3.1 installiert. Hat der Käufer keine Lizenz, dann muß es natürlich gelöscht werden.

but it wounds good to me!!!

it looks like, "The quadra 950 comes with 256mb of ram, in the form of 16 16mb 30pinners" and a/ux 3.1 installed.

great score!

Sherlock isn't too bad at translating then! it comes up with:

In the end I would like to speak again on the Quadra 950 come, its
memory with 256MB am fully developed. This 256MB consists of 16 the
desired and expensive 16MB 30pin SIMMs. Those alone are already (also
today still) worth a fortune. On this device ist uebrigens
frisches A/UX installs 3,1. If the buyer does not have a license, then
it must be deleted naturally.

Nice score.

Also does the Mein eBay button make anyone else laugh. I just get a vision of a server crashing and yelling out Mein eBay.

True, but it was not far away from home. Driving time was just 1 hour. Luckily my dad helped me out with that.
I don't know what i'm going to do with all the stuff, but i think i'll sell some Macs now. This auction ate my whole pocket money (it was for a G3 iMac) but i couldn't resist (who can? ;)).
And as you see, i have enough 68k Macs now. ;)
