Looking to buy a G3 tower (Yosemite). The bigger the hard drive and the faster the processor, the better. Oh, and I need firewire. RAM doesn't matter as much since I'll probably upgrade anyway. New, used, refurbed, whatever... any extras (Zip, extra HD, perhiperals) would be a big bonus.

Also, I'd consider a G4 (Sawtooth -- with 100baseT ethernet and AGP graphics slot). Any links or postings are greatly appreciated...

I'm actually selling my system right now, you get a crack at it before I put it on eBay--

400MHz Yosemite G3, Rev1
512mb PC100 Ram, 3-2-2
2x27GB 7200RPM IBM ATA/66 Hard Drives
Initio 9090U UltraSCSI PCI Card
Internal Yamaha 8x4x24 SCSI CDRW
Internal Aiwa 4/8GB Travan SCSI tape drive
Stock Rage128 with hardware DVD (flawless DVD play, as opposed to software DVD play )
Stock Matsushita 4xDVD/32x CD drive
2 firewire ports
2 USB ports
ADB, etc etc.
20" RasterOps monitor, .22dp

All of this is in an Antec KS-188 full tower case. I know it's not as nice looking as the Yosemite case, but it can hold up to 7 3.5" drives, and 5 5.25" drives. I have put a huge amount of cash and time (the case conversion was a bit of a challenge) into this machine, but feel free to make an offer. Reasonable offers only, too. It also has gobs of software on it, all legit copies. If you're interested, drop me a line at josh@supermodified.net, or reply here in the thread
