Over the past couple days or so I've been working on a G3 mini tower I picked up on ebay for $30 shipped. So far all I've done is clean it up a bit, get it running, and check to see what's damaged. So far the only problem is the floppy drive won't read any of my disks so I'm replacing it with a G3 floppy drive I found on eBay for $15 shipped. I haven't tested the USB card yet but I'm sure it will work fine.

I plan on installing a 1 GHZ G3 processor, 768 MB RAM, os 10.2.8, a 80GB hard drive and a 4 MB VRAM card and possibly a new video card later.
