yea when any of my Macs die, even tho most of them are not in a stock config i will mourn there loss.
a Mac that has been upgraded past its stock config is still a Mac non the less. it might not be as collectable but its still a Mac and someone's pride and joy.
upgrading a Mac past its stock config dont make it less of a Mac it just makes it able to do more than what it could do in a stock config.
just cause my Performa 475 is upgraded does not mean its not a Performa 475, it just has the ability to do more than what its was originally intended for. and that makes the P 475 worth more to my eyes than if it was still in its stock config. and some people look at a fully upgraded Mac (68k or PPC) as being worth more than one in its stock config even tho its a collectors item. my P 475 isnt considered a collectors item to most.
Yea some collector Mac's should not be upgraded (so they remain a collectors item). and then if someone wants to upgrade it they have every right to do so.
