hi, im in the need for a portable computer and am looking into getting rid of my blue and white powermac, the specs are as follows:

g4 450mhz processor (with the right cooling could get to 500mhz)
256mb of ram (can be 384 if ya like)
40 gigabyte western digital 5400 rpm hard drive
stock CD rom drive
stock Zip drive (100mb i believe)
100mhz system bus
16mb pci ati rage pro 128 video card
3 64bit pci card slots
mouse and keyboard


the case is in great shape minus a little scuff on the bottem front handle, but its barely noticeable and that part goes on the desk anyways

anyways im looking to if anyone wants to trade this in for an ibook 600 or 700mhz with the ati radeon card, the main thing i find i want is portability, if anyone is interested please email me at mills2444@spymac.com or instant message me at millertyme59 on aim or ichat.

Is that a G4 upgrade card in there, or just a mistyping? Also, how much cash are you willing to offer with the machine?
MacBook - 2GHz Core 2 Duo / 4GBs of RAM / 250GB / Combo / GMA X3100
Philips 37" 720p / Toshiba HD-A20 / Pioneer HTP-2900 / Pioneer DV-410

it is a g4 zif processor that replaced the original g3 350mhz processor

it would come with mac os 10.2 jaguar and mac os 9 (no cd's) installed and even configured if you like. the trade still stands but im putting the machine up for sale as with these items, here is the info:


i am in need of a portable computer (ibook) so i am selling this fine machine:

specs:
g4 450mhz processor (upgraded from g3 350mhz)
100mhz system bus
256mb of ram (upgradeable to 1 GB)
ati rage pro 128 pci card with 16mb of video ram
stock cd rom drive
stock zip drive
40gb western digital 40gb hard drive
keyboard and mouse
17inch matching blue and white apple crt studio display (two small small lines of what i assume are dead pixels, BARELY noticable)
includes mac os 9.2.2 and mac os 10.2 jaguar (cd's not included)

this machine is a great machine for anyone who needs a good solid tower, right now the upgrades go up to a g4 550 , but come macworld sanfancisco they are going to make faster zif upgrades (i emailed sonnet on the subject and they plan to)

this tower was used for web design as well as graphic design , and even for some home video editing. everyone who has used it has been amazed with it as have i, the g4 really shows in os x and apps like imovie and i dont have one complaint about this machine and am sad to see it being sold. it is a powermac g3 blue and white with a g4 processor , the case is in great condition minus a scuff on the bottem front handle (barely noticable and it sits on the ground anyways )

p.s. something went odd with the cd rom cable so i replaced it, the old one didnt boot off cd's but after i put in a new ide cable the machine was back to normal, just a small fyi since there is an extra cable in there. the computer will be sold as described above, the whole package, unless you can offer me a good deal on the tower/monitor alone.

asking price is 800$ + shipping
garunteed not to be a DOA and will offer any tech support for the machine after it is givin for as long as you own it.





i am also selling the following items from my pc/mac

6gb maxtor hard drive that came in my mac above
250 watt power supply from pc
amd 750 mhz duron with 200mhz fsb, socket A cpu

the following 3 were pulled from working machines, if you have any interest in ANY of these items please IM me or email me at mills2444@spymac.com for my email and millertyme59 for my ichat/aim screen name
