great score.....yeah, the Q 800, was a great mac...'member reading in mac world,around the time of it's release, how it performed ' faster' on many chores than the flagship Quadra 950..which costed thousands more..Score! Epic conquest on a Quadra packed so full of RAM
I always liked the classics; I've been meaning to replace the CRT guts in
mine for a while now; I'll get around to it eventually :
of course, the 950, had far more upgrade paths and potential....but
the 800, really rocked a lot of mac fan's worlds...until the arrival of the
almighty 840AV ....
Finding classics with those 'ram' cards is nice. The fans on the bottom of the MB chassis, really get clogged up with lint, dirt, and other junk.
sure wish they were the classic II..........been jonesing for one, for eons, well..actually a MB for one...however, I did get my faulty mb to finally boot up..but the ram slots need to be replaced...due to age..very brittle
amazing how some of the plastic and metal in these classics ( and other compact macs ) age badly....as Mick Jagger once sang..
' what a drag, it is getting old ' .....
again two thumbs up for a nice score..
