Previous owner says owned it from new and it didn't have feet. Just the tabs as feet. I'm sure he just got nipped but I'm just happy to have one. Picture taken with iSight lol.
Ooo, a Quadra! I would like to have one of those. What site did you get off of, if you don't kind me asking?
Craigslist in New Mexico. When you google just type year month by number and what your looking for and closest results will pop up.
nice score!
i'm happy for you sir!
Awesome! i havent seen a Q700 for sale in over a year on epay.
and when i do they get way jacked up in price!
How much vram does yours have installed?
How much ram does it have?
HOw big is the HD?
Is the Led Activity light there and working?
Any Cool Nubus cards installed?
make sure you blast out the PSU with your air compressor,
blow all them hunks of dust bunny crap out.
any cracks in the case or chips in the paint?
Post a better rez picture of your new beauty!

He sent me pictures of it booted up, but I hooked it up, hit power, no chime hard drive spins. Probably bad caps. No idea of specs, so cheap the case was worth the 40 to get it to me. No led for the hard drive but I think I have a drive I can put it in. The holder is there.
You mean eBay? That's not true, they come up regularly. But somewhat expensive. They are popular.
Here's one sold 3 weeks ago, one sold 3 days ago, and here's one being sold right now.
Makes me love my boxed Q700, with all original documentation and accessories. Makes me wonder how much it is worth though...
A 660 av fetched around $ 500 with box and original contents, super clean.
make sure to blast out the psu with your aircompressor,, don't use those cans of air those are crappy, blast the psu out with the a real air compressor... in transportation a big hunk of crap might of fell on something causing a dust short.
i havent looked for a quadra 700 on ePay since around August...
There was always that one for like 2 or 3 hundred bucks in hungry or whatever but i never counted that.. my budget at the time was 50 dollars for a quadra 700
and "Aftermac" from here came through for me. what a guy! i love it. that is how i met aftermac... a real nice guy with a BAD ass mac collection! When i got there to
buy his Quadra 700 (he is only about 40 min from me), They even had pizza ready, how cool is that!

That is so awesome hahaThey even had pizza ready, how cool is that!
Very cool.
The Q700 seems to be the FeetsMac of choice lately. I wish the maniac was still around to champion the MicroQuadraFeetsMac™ . . .
. . . I really miss her silliness and the V-Hacks. :'(

I have a Quadra 700 too. I love it to pieces. It's my favourite Mac, as a matter of fact.

What happened to Dana? Did she lose interest in old Macs?

She's moved on. ISTR her keeping just a couple of Macs, now she gets to do some graphics work IRL, good on her! I really miss Cinemo, marchie and ~coxy from the earliest of days. G4from128k, torpedobird and many of the later recruits are much missed as well, but they all live on in the archives . . .
. . . as do my maturing, more serious, fellow mods in their more rambunctious younger iterations.

I wish I had never sold my Q700. I just wish I remembered who I sold it to. It had to be someone on here.
Another... I wish I hadn't sold my Q700 too!
I've never had one. I'd get one to replace my IIci if it didn't only have 2 NuBus slots. I need at least 3.
Pizza or pizzabox :lol: ?
I'm glad your Quadra is now working, sometimes you get those machines that you just can't do anything for.
Sure if you know your way around a oscilloscope and you have blueprints... and know what you are doing… you could fix almost anything.

Good score!
Same here! If anyone ended up with a Q700 that was spray painted black that I sent you from South Dakota...I'd love to know if it still exists!
