8GB HD? You sure you don't mean 80MB (0.08GB)?
Great machine, though, and that one really does look like mint condition. I have all sorts of stuff that'd run on it back at my mom's house... Prince of Persia, Carmen Sandiego, King's Quest, etc.

If you get tired of using MacOS on it, you could try NetBSD Unix... might be tricky with only a floppy drive, and no ethernet, though.
