With apologies to the inclusion of the non 68k mac, I am posting this to test the waters to see if anyone would be interested in a some kind of trade for one or both of these Macs. The Performa comes with the needed powercord as does the Duo. The Duo's battery seems to be pretty much spent and will not recharge. Additionally, the AC adapter, while working just fine, did take a "hit" from a loose hamster one night many years ago. (True story!) The insulation has been chewed off in spots and clear packing-like tape covers these areas. I wouldn't shower with it, but otherwise you won't have any problems with it. I've been using it in this condition for at least 8 years.
The Performa has 24 megs of mem, the Duo just 4.
Here are the Apples I have in my collection so you can see what you might have that would interest me.
IIc
Mac 128, 512, and 1mb w/20mb HD
Color Classic
IIsi
LC III
Powerbox 520c [bad case of hingeitis with screen flicker]
Newton 2000 [with all sorts of accessories except the serial dongle]
Performa 6290cd
Duo 2300
Starmax 3000
iMac DV 400
Pismo 500
Mmmmm Newton Serial Dongle :)
....more less I am just trying get one Mac from each "family." So, I don't need an LC II or a Mac Classic....etc. Additional Memory for some of the puters listed between the Color Classic and the Pismo might be nice. Or if you have a spare machine that you think would make for a fair trade, let me know that too.
Basically, I am open to almost any suggestion.
Let me know if you have questions as well about the two machines that I have.
Duo 230 and Performa 6200cd--
