These are the pics.
the machine is in really nice condition. It shipped with little to no scratches. Battery lasts 2-3 hour and charges all the way. Took 6 hours to charge initially
The logo. Should've noticed this as it was in the pic on eBay, but it wasn't a clear picture. Oh well. It's still a very nice machine. I only paid $60. It came out relatively cheap for a PowerBook G3 this nice.
and the AC Adapter. Cool looking adapter, but the AC Cord comes out really easily. So just moving it can cause it to come out.
All in all I guess I am satisfied. the SCSI bus hit's 10MB/s consistently with an external 9GB Ultra2 SCSI drive (68-pin 40MB/s) on an adapter in an external case.
One issue I have is that the DVD-ROM drive, while it works on other discs, won't read either my Tiger disc, or DVD+R's (expected on the DVD+R)
It will play/read other DVDs and CDs very well. it's just not liking my Tiger Disc.
So I had to hit the net and source the CD version of Tiger to install it. Then with XPostFacto, it slipped right on.
the extra RAM is out in the mail right now. I will have it shortly (probably around noon when the post man comes) and I will install it.
Does anyone know if the video chip on this is on a 33Mhz or 66Mhz internal PCI bus? if it's 66Mhz, it would be a lot better and rival close to AGP 1x or 2x. That would make it faster than PCI 33Mhz/32-bit
