Keep the IIci. Uniserver can get it recapped for very cheap - PM him for the facts. He brought one of my from the dead - literally! Being in NYC he found a lot of corrosion on the traces and had to fix them, and it was not from the cap goo either - but from the humid environment NYC is. Then get a Daystar 040 Accelerator for it and BAM! It will be a kick ass machine! I recommend the 50MHz for it. Most of the time a recapping repairs PSU Problems as well.
But the 9600, that is a great machine. Depending on what you use it for, you should have many years of use out of it!
