I have an old Mac SE with superdrive, a wopping 4mb of RAM and (I think) a 80mb harddrive. I also have all of the original system software and some additional software like Word and Works and a few games.
I would like to sell it. Are ancient Macs such as this worth anything these days? If so, how much?
Thanks.

Thanks. So, how do I go about selling it?

You could try posting it for sale here or on eBay. I recently bought an SE with a 40 MB drive, 1.4 MB floppy, 4 MB RAM, and a Radius 25 MHz 68020 accelerator card for $16 on eBay. I also bought an SE with a broken hard disk, an external 800k floppy, an internal 800k floppy, and 4 MB RAM from my physics teacher for $5. I'd say $25-$35 would be more suitable for an SE/30, while $5-$15 would be appropriate for an SE, depending on the options. SE/30s are much more expandable (up to 128 MB RAM!) and faster (16 MHz 68030 vs. 8 MHz 68000), so people are more likely to hold onto them and they'll be rarer and more expensive.

The SE/30's were also insanely expensive when they first shipped.
