This computer has been lightly used for my computer science projects at school. It's in great condition, and hasn't been kept around animals or smokers. One small scratch is visible on the (removable) side panel, which is a result of the computer being kept flush against my desk. I have attempted to capture it in the pictures as best as I can, although it doesn't show up much.
I am the computer's original owner and I bought it directly from Apple. It will ship in its original box, with the original keyboard, mouse, manuals, and media. When I purchased this computer it came with OS X 10.3 (Panther) but I will include the OS X 10.4 (Tiger) Install DVD. I have upgraded the machine from it's original 512MB of RAM to 1.5GB of RAM. I added 2 Geil 512MB modules with heat sinks. I also installed a Raptor 10,000 RPM drive which helps shorten boot times.
I am selling this computer because I purchased a new Macbook, and I no longer need to have a desktop around. This machine would make a really great buy for someone working in graphic design that needs to be able to run Photoshop, etc as fast as possible, which is not yet available for intel hardware. This would also make a great gift in time for Christmas!!!
BONUS:
If the computer is purchased using the Buy-It-Now Option, I will include a SwiftData 200 HD mounting kit. With a SATA PCI card, this bracket kit allows you to mount up to FIVE hard drives in your G5!! (compared to the original two)
Payment and Shipping Details:
I will only accept PayPal for this auction. If you are the winning bidder, I expect payment to be immediate, and I will return the favor by shipping as soon as payment is received. I will answer emails as soon as I get them, so feel free to ask questions as they come up.
This item will be shipped ONLY to the 48 contiguous states and ONLY to confirmed addresses with NO exception. Buyer pays for shipping, including delivery confirmation, insurance and handling. I will pack everything as I received it from Apple, but I still need to include the insurance, not only to protect myself, but also to protect the buyer. If you don’t feel comfortable with these payment/shipping terms, please don’t bid. Local pickup is fine if you are in the Boston/Cambridge area.
