Good luck selling. I had a heck of a time selling my G4 (actually it still hasn't sold). Not much of a market for them here.

You CAN sell G4's here, or anywhere else.......you just HAVE to realistic about the asking price

and no, $285 for that QS is NOT realistic IMHO, based on recent ebay & craigslist sales I have seen, as well as the QS I bought in Dec '06 for $225 shipped. (867/1GB/2x60gb HDD/SuperDrive/Tiger/Apple KB & mouse/original boxes and a few other goodies too)

and Sherb, to help your sale, you might wanna consider a few more pics, to show the overall condition of the machine as well as a shot of the insides too.

Also, if you wanna replace the speaker, I have the one I took out of my QS (I replaced it with a fan to help cool my o/c'd Radeon 9800) you can have it for $3 (to cover postage)..........jlmk

Personally I find it hilarious that you have the hots for my gramma. Especially seeins how she is 3x your age, and makes your Brittney-Spears-wannabe 30-something wife look like a rag doll who went thru WWIII with a burning stick of dynamite up her a** :)

Well, I had two of these machines and i sold on last week for $280 which is why this one is priced the way it is. I do need to get rid of this which is why I emphasized the "make an offer". Thanks for the thread crap too

Did these have ADC hookups are VGA for the display? Also, can that speaker be replaced fairly easily? Doesn't matter, just wondering.

This machine has 1 ADC and 1 VGA and yes, the speaker can be replaced very easily.

Would you be able to include a mouse/keyboard for a decent price?
