$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #3

It's going to be given to a friend as an upgrade to an original bondi iMac which I gave him a few years back. He doesn't know that he's getting it though. It's sort of a late-Chris…

$50 for an orange iMac - reasonable? — #2

Seems a bit steep to me, unless it's in museum condition. The real question is: is it worth it to you? If the $50 won't lead to starvation and the iMac is something you'd get any u…

High ho, Quicksilver! — #13

Yeah, I tried that, too. The WaveLAN card can be sort-of forced to fit in a clamshell iBook; and fits with some fiddling in a gumdrop iMac, but not in a PowerMac.
