Considering selling the following:
- Apple GigE Dual G4/500
- GeForce 3 64MB graphics card (FAST!)
- Pioneer A05 Superdrive (4X speed, new!)
- 40GB HDD
- 544MB RAM
- Pro Keyboard, Pro Mouse (the cool optical black ones!)
- I will include original gfx card and DVDROM drive
- Works flawlessly.

The GeForce3 is an amazing graphics card that allows ultra-high resolution gaming. I play Quake 3 at 60 fps at 1600x1200 with all details turned all the way up without any problems at all. It's quick. (My LCD is a 1600x1200 size, so I wanted something that wouldn't slow down at very high resolutions.)

The Superdrive Pioneer A05 works great in iDVD and Finder disk copies/Finder Disk Burning.

The machine is in great shape. The left side of it has a few scratches, but the unit works perfectly. No problems, no issues.

Any interest? I was thinking around $1050 with SuperDrive and GF3....

Any mouse/keyboard/other stuff come with it? Any pictures?

Would you be interested in a trade for a high-end gaming Shuttle XPC? See here: http://forums.macnn.com/showthread.p...hreadid=166787

Pro keyboard and Pro mouse comes with!

Do you have the original box/manuals/etc.?

Would you consider the PC trade?

foo2 · Jul 2, 2003, 02:14 PM

I don't have the original box/manuals, but I do have my old G3 box, so I'd probably try to ship in that. I don't think I have the styrofoam shipping containers, though. Anyway, I'd pack it securely, so I don't think that would be an issue.

I don't need another PC, just cash.

takes you directly to the *LOADED* G4/500x2 that's for sale.

foo2 · Jul 3, 2003, 12:03 PM

Also, in addition to the Pro Keyboard and Pro Mouse, I'm also including the ATI Rage 128 Pro 16MB graphics card (AGP) that came with this unit originally. Also, I'm including the DVD-ROM drive that came with this unit.

If there are any questions, just PM me or ask here. Thanks!

This link shows the System Profiler report, clearly indicating the dual G4/500 CPUs and the amount of RAM. If there are any other questions about system stats please just let me know.

RAM bumped up to 800MB!

d0ct0rteeth · Jul 7, 2003, 07:24 PM

$800 sound fair?

you can keep the original gfx card and DVDROM drive

foo2 · Jul 7, 2003, 08:12 PM

Check your PM, but briefly, that's too low for too much stuff. The GF3 and SuperDrive 4X are worth more in a Dual G4/500.

i can give you $700, you keep the superdrive, put the old DVD back in and leave the ram at 544MB.

how's that sound? email me at sonny@xiola.org.

i am shopping for a G4 powermac, so the quicker you let me know the better.

Still FS - G4/500 Dual, 800MB, GF3, SuperDrive 4X, Pro Mouse & Keyboard, great shape.

Adam Betts · Jul 15, 2003, 12:33 AM

Willing to sell GeForce 3 64MB separately?

foo2 · Jul 16, 2003, 08:10 PM

I will sell the GeForce 3 seperately.

It is a flashed Geforce 3 - same BIOS as the Apple unit, same drivers (they're all in the operating system these days, of course), but the hardware *is* different - it only has VGA-output, not VGA plus DVI-D that I believe the Apple unit has. It's driving my 20" Dell LCD monitor right now.

Lateralus · Jul 17, 2003, 12:19 AM

You should have mentioned that it was flashed in your first posting...

foo2 · Jul 20, 2003, 11:32 PM

True - it's VGA-only, so if you have a DVI-only or ADC-only monitor it would impact you.

Still for sale. Great little system. Make offer without GF3 or without SuperDrive if you don't want one or both of them. PM me or mail me if interested. Thx.

foo2 · Jul 31, 2003, 08:53 PM

RAM bumped to 1GB of RAM (it's nice and fast in OS X!)....

Make an offer. I'll drop the price a little and sell without the Superdrive for $800. (This includes the super-fast GeForce 3 graphics card.....1600x1200 blows away the Geforce 4MX and Radeon 9000 cards that are common these days....)

PM if interested.
