Damn! $200 is way underpriced for even a 1.6 single.

Really, Panther would be the better option, being more optimized than 10.2 and stuff. The only reason i'm still running Jag is because i don't have a copy of Panther.

Click-click drives...eww. Many people swear by 'em, but i hate the bastards. But don't worry about me...i hate click-click drives mostly because mine went click after only 1.5 yea…

Zip disks are awesome. I have an old external SCSI Zip 100 drive. I have about 25 disks or so. A friend of mine whose main machine (heck only machine) is his trusty Amiga 4000 tra…

QuadSix50, I would love to purchase the old G5 case from your dad. This would include: the mobo optical drive powersupply case I am completely and totally dead serious. Tell …

How much do ZIP disks sell for these days? Do they even make and sell them anymore? Probably would have been cheaper to buy a bigger hard drive for your Quadra 700. Nice SE!

I'd prefer Panther if I could manage it as plenty of modern software still runs under it. Realistically though, Jaguar is probably the better option. I'll probably end up trying bo…

Even so, i find that Jaguar runs fine with 256MB...thats what i have on my iMac 333.

I've seen a handful of iMacs up on freecycle here, this is the first one I was quick enough to snag. There was another one yesterday but the guy listed it as being taken without ev…

there's never anything good on my local freecycle! cool find dude!

256MB SO-DIMMs are a bit of a mystery bag...the problem is the early iMacs are a bit finicky about 256MB SO-DIMMs, in that with some, they will only address the first 128MB of the …

Since it was pointed out to me the colour I thought was Blueberry was, in fact, Indigo I have no idea what colour this machine is. What makes it look Bondi Blue in one pic makes it…

Hot damn! I'm trying to find one for my father whose PMG5 1.6 GHz had the processor fail due to overheating (he had put it in one of those cramped cubbyholes some desks come with …

Craigslist. $200. I just ordered 2x512MB from e-bay that should work. It'll give me 1.25GB of RAM which will make Tiger happy. I plan on getting another 2x1GB modules before Leop…

To quote Low End Mac : "There are rumors that some Bondi blue ones were built in January 1999 using the last of the Bondi cases." This is on the iMac 266MHz specs page. Very nice…

Don't think of Bondi as Blue, it was greenish blue, closer to green then blue, basically Teal. Apple never made Bondi 266mhz.

Except that it's *not* Blueberry. Blueberry is instantly recognisable as blue but this is closer to the colour of my Blue and White G3. The spec sticker on the underside backs up t…

I saw [a Colour Classic] lying on a curb in Geneva Click to expand... Lucky! ended up carrying it halfway across the city Click to expand... You rock!

Since it's 266mhz, it's a Rev C. blueberry iMac. Cool!

7.1 is a good system for the Colour Classic, much faster than 7.5. Also, the reddish tint on the monitor could be caused by a dying or dead PRAM battery - mine used to get a green …

OK, booted it up today. It works fine for the most part (although the monitor does get the occasional reddish tint to it). It's running French System 7.5, and it has 10 MB RAM and…

I will be so jealous if this is a freebie.

Cool! Where'd ya get it?

I love how the the classic macs look. Have fun with one of the most tresured macs!

Some of the best finds are in the strangest places.
