After moving I'm looking to get rid of some stuff, including my old Power Mac. It was my main Mac machine until I got an Intel Mini, so I don't need this one anymore.

Specs are as follows:

- 1.67GHz Sonnet CPU upgrade installed
- 1.5GB PC133 RAM (maxed out)
- 200GB IDE HDD
- Sony dual-layer DVD-/+RW, DVD-RAM drive
- Zip 250 drive
- Radeon 7000 AGP video card (65MB VRAM)

This is an excellent machine; it runs Leopard very smoothly and quickly. The video card sometimes locks up when coming out of standby, forcing a hard reboot, but when the machine is in active use the card is stable.

I'm asking $125 local pickup in the DC Metro area. If you want me to ship it, post here and we'll see if we can work out a deal, but keep in mind this thing weighs like forty pounds, so shipping won't be cheap.
For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...

Your DA G4 is subject to the 128 GB firmware limit. How are you working the extra capacity? Partition it to 128 & ignore the rest, partition to 128 and access the rest with the Intech driver as a data partition, or 3rd party PATA card?

Intech driver.

It also apparently has a second 80GB HDD I'd forgotten about.

If I were still stateside I'd snap this up. Good deal for a versatile machine.

Ok, I lied. Apparently it's got a 100GB drive along with the 80GB.

Still a spankin' machine. If I weren't in desperate need of cash dollars I'd keep it around.
