I wound up with two 950's. but I've never played very much with them, preferring my IIfx, Radius 81/110 and my Pile-o-Books, which take up a lot less space and are more fun to hack.

As for the NuBus goodness, if a Q950 has Video Capture, I'd figure there's a good-great Video Card and a NIC in there. I'd buy it for $100 just on the off chance that there's a SCSI 2 card in a machine that's possibly set up for VidCap and has several NuBus Cards on board!

Ask her if you can bring a monitor over to test it and let her know you can run it off a CD with a clean install of an appropriate OS and something like SlotInfo or TechTool on it to find out what Cards & RAM are in it before you buy! If she demurs, let her know that a listing of the Card/RAM specs from your appraisal could help her get a better or more reasonable asking price for it, even if you pass! }:)
