I'm putting my Power Mac G4 on the selling block! This is the perfect opportunity for PC users to pick up an inexpensive Mac to get their feet wet, or for an existing Mac user to upgrade to a more capable Mac. Here is everything that is included with the system:

� PowerPC 7410 @ 533 MHz, 1 MB L3 cache (upgradeable with single or dual processors as fast as 1.5 GHz)
� 896 PC133 SDRAM (1 x 512 MB, 1 x 256 MB, 1 x 128 MB)
� OEM ATI Radeon 9000 Pro (64 MB VRAM, ADC and DVI)
� 160 GB storage (2x 60 GB and 40 GB Maxtor HD)
� Apple/Pioneer SuperDrive (2x DVD-R, 8x CD-R)
� AirPort wireless networking card (802.11b)
� Apple Pro speakers
� Apple Pro keyboard and mouse (or Microsoft, if you prefer)
� Mac OS X 10.3.3 (Panther) pre-installed with iLife '04 (iTunes, iPhoto, iDVD, iMovie, GarageBand)

For complete specifications, visit Apple's website (PDF format).

You can check my ebay feedback under the username iamgizzard. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me at gizzard at mac dot com.

I would like to get $800 (I'll cover 1/2 of the shipping costs).

Here are some pictures!

Good machine but i think a little over priced.

Lateralus · May 5, 2004, 07:49 PM

I think it is a very reasonable price for a 533/896MB/100GB/SuperDrive/Radeon 9000 Pro/AirPort Card/Pro Speakers...

By the way, how can you over clock a g4?

Lateralus · May 5, 2004, 08:50 PM

Ask in the Power Mac forum.

i like the look of the older g4s, makes me nostalgic. i had one for a couple of years and stuck with me through all the terrible times of video editing.

Bump!

You may want to consider lower your price to maybe 750 inc. shipping. That is a tad high for that machine these days. Good Luck!

Lil' bump.

Is this the dual-processor model? Judging by the heatsink it would appear to be, but from your post it sounds like a single.

Lateralus · May 11, 2004, 04:46 PM

Looks like a single, I think. I believe the Dual 533s had a 'shroud' over the heatsink.

(EDIT)

Found a picture.

Yup, he's right. It's a single processor model.

gizzard · May 14, 2004, 01:04 AM

System lowered to $825, processor upgrade lowered to $225.

gizzard · May 17, 2004, 12:59 AM

Bump.

gizzard · May 23, 2004, 12:11 AM

System lowered to $800. Processor upgrade is sold.

gizzard · May 24, 2004, 10:55 PM

Would anyone like to make any offers? I'd like to give this Mac a good home ASAP. =)

gizzard · Jun 11, 2004, 12:52 PM

Installed another 60 GB HD into the G4 for a total of 160. Bump!

Scotttheking · Jun 11, 2004, 11:11 PM

Are you willing to part it out?

gizzard · Jun 12, 2004, 10:37 PM

Sold.

Lateralus · Jun 12, 2004, 10:55 PM

Woo-hoo.
