This beast has been with me for four years, but it's now time for it to find another home. I have painted the case black using Krylon spray paint. I just got sick of the ugly beige... the paint looks quite nice.

Here are the system specs:

- Desktop Power Computing PowerCenter
- XLR8 MACh Carrier G3/500 MHz (will also include the original 150 MHz 604 processor)
- 144 MB RAM
- 4 MB VRAM
- 9 GB Baracudda 7200 RPM FastSCSI drive
- 36x Toshiba CD-ROM
- 4x8x Panasonic CD-R (I'll throw in some CD-R media as well)
- Floppy drive
- Built-in 10 Base-T and AAUI ethernet
- 2 serial ports, 1 SCSI-1 port, 16-bit stereo in/out ports, 2 VGA ports (one Mac, one PC), ADB port
- 10/100 Base-T PCI card
- RocketFire 2 USB ports, 2 FireWire ports PCI card
- ixMicro TV/fm PCI card (all three slots are filled)
- external SCSI Jaz 1 GB drive (no cartridges included)
- external SCSI Zip 100 MB drive (a handful of cartrdiges included) in rare beige color
- external keyboard (either Power Computing's stock one, or my painted Apple Extended II--which you probably don't want since you can't see the letters on the keys )
- Apple Bus Mouse II
- Mac OS 9.0.4 and a host of other software

This machine is fully maxed out... all PCI, RAM, VRAM, and bays are full.

I'm looking to get $900 for the set up... the XLR8 upgrade alone sells for $550, the RAM sells for $250, the RocketFire sells for $150... so you're already getting a bit of a deal just on those three items!

A 17" Power Computing monitor (Sony tube) will be thrown in as well for $100.

Own a piece of MacNN history... email me at misha@macnn.com

I'll have photos up later today.
