The Mother of All Conquests
If that fails, you might be able to do a visual check against the images in the appropriate Nubus Mafia categories.
That's some truly top-notch conquesting

Trading Post?eBay definitely beckons.
Yes, here too. There are, however, certain things that are worth real money (like SE/30 ethernet cards) on the right day on eBay.Trading Post?
On this topic, I am sorry to say that there is no 660av nubus adapter in the haul, which I have now been through in a first reasonably methodical pass.
There is, however, yet one further SE/30 video card that has emerged, this one a Radius two-page display with a VGA connection. That makes three SE/30 video cards. This latest must have been made for the old Radius greyscale displays that came with a VGA rather than a DB15 connector.
If you're parting with anything, I'm certainly interested in any LC motherboards, a couple 68040 processors, and a SCSI to Ethernet adapter.
Ditto on any full '040s that come up for grabs.
Go on. Do the dance. You know you want to.
Have you been checking IC-China on ebay?Ditto on any full '040s that come up for grabs.
Unless I go scrapping the Q650, I have so far only found two 68040s, at 25 and 33MHz, but plan to keep them (for my Q605 and LC575). I have a few 68LC040s processors, and seven or eight Intel Pentiums, but obviously neither is so appealing.
Religiously. He hasn't had any for ages, and when he did he wanted Amiga-market prices for them :/Have you been checking IC-China on ebay?full '040s
Any Dual core Pentiums?
Sorry, no.
The parts list sounds good, to be honest that stuff is harder to find then machines these days.
The last time I saw him with any, he had two 40 mhz and I bought both of them. I think he wanted $15 each for them, but that has to be about a year to a year and a half ago.He hasn't had any for agesIC-China on ebay?full '040s
And I agree about Amiga users ruining the market for cheap parts for us Mac users.
I have posted a number of photos of some of the interesting things on the group's Flickr site.
Daystar DiskRunner caching SCSI card :O so jealous right now.
Your haul of SE/30 PDS cards makes me want to
:scrambled: xx(
Very nice little treasure trove.

As for the Daystar Diskrunner, I know next to nothing about it.
What machine would a Diskrunner be well paired with? I would have thought that, by the time of the IIci, say, it would have been redundant. Or is there a use for it even in 1990s hardware?

Definitely. I left a Dell Optiplex (covered in black plastic) in the back of the car for about 2 days (in the middle of summer, in Melbourne...) and when I went to collect it it was little more than a warped mass of black and grey plastic. Another issue is that with the older macs, moving them from a hot to cold environment constantly causes the plastic to brittle - hence my beige Plus cracking in several places when I went to pry it open! Weather and computers don't mix...Another thing is the heat as well...not such a problem in Winter, but in the middle of Summer it gets bloody hot in a car boot...my Dad leaves his work laptop in the boot of his car all the time and I'm surprised the heat hasn't damaged it.
I am a jealous, jealous man right now. Any unwanted goodies among the haul of audio gear?
Same here, but I do seem to recall someone else here extolling their virtues. I'll see if I can dig up the thread.As for the Daystar Diskrunner, I know next to nothing about it.
Meanwhile, software here - maybe it has a readme or a manual in the download.
Does the portable even work?
The Portable was not finally included in the lot. But there was a lot in the lot, anyway, if you know what I mean.
