The Craigslist ad had fuzzy pictures of the "Mac SE" the guy wanted to sell. Turned out to be an SE/30 with an Ethernet card in it! I felt much better about dropping $50 on a networked SE/30 than just another SE! I have my tools at work, so I'll see if there is any battery damage before I power it on. Outside is very nice. I'll post pics from work. I have a feeling that there might be a lot of memory in there too. It came with the intro to SE/30 disk, and his original Mac 128's (which he no longer has) MacWrite/MacDraw manual, which is cool as can be.

The Mini will be my kids' new Netflix machine, so I can have my iMac back! It's a 1st generation Intel Mac Mini maxed out with 2 GB of RAM, and an hot (temperature) 80G HDD :) Looks like I have to find my putty knives and put a cool little SSD in there. It'll only run 10.6.8, but that's plenty for the PBS Kids and Netflix load it'll be asked to carry.
