I have a big pile of powerbook 5300 parts that have built up over the past couple of years. Having gotten 2 working 5300s and a working 190 out of the pile I am now looking to get rid of the rest.

Most of the stuff is from 5300cs or 5300c computers, but there was also 1 5300ce and 190 in there. At a glance it looks like there were 4 5300 and 1 190 computers, but I can't promise that there is exactly 5 of every part. I don't think that the ce or c displays work, though some of the cs displays might. I also have a broken duo 280 and 2 displays from a 3400c (?) in unknown condition.

I am looking for $5 to $10 per part (plus shipping), depending on its size (screws cost less). You can buy the whole pile for $50. I don't want to do any complex testing, but I can do some basic testing if you want. I can also provide pictures if needed.

Note: I do not have any power adapters in this pile - just parts of the computer itself. Also, there is only 1 good battery for sale, it is not part of the $50 pile, and it will cost $10.

Also, if you happen to need any SGI Octane parts I have some of those as well.

I'm interested in the cable that connected the mobo to the lcd and the inverter board, shipping on that should be almost nothing. Let me know!

*bump*

If anyone has a good display for a 160, 165, or 170 I would like to trade. I would also like some original OS install disks for a 160 or 165.
