The late 90's were...a dark period. After the 7100 (which served as my primary computer) died, budgets concerns lead my parents to purchase a Compaq running Windows 95. That was 1997. I eventually upgraded it to Win98SE to keep up with the times. However, I was finally able to convince them to get me an iBook G4 (the one my girl has now) when it was time to ship off to college. It's been Mac again ever since.

If it is do you have any spare ones lying about that you would consider selling?. I have been trying to track one down for over 12 months, but they are hard to come by in Australia.

Thank-you
Leon

You should have seen it before I cleaned it up. This was originally destined for the dump, but I pulled it out a box at my friends business and told him I would put it on ebay for him. It went for $.99 plus shipping charges.

The screen stayed black. But this week I tried again and now it seems to work but with a wobbly image...

Thank you for your comment,

I really have now idea which operation system i'm running on my mac. I can only see the version of the finder. But in the most times I just see the sad mac.

(It is: "Hoe is het lekker thuis". a "te huis" is a old people's home.)

At 4:01am on March 23, 2009, Manuel Marques said…: Yeah, it seemed like a quite older mouse and keyboard :).
Yep, I could get a 475... but they're hard to find around here, and shipping from UK is pricey... I got all my LC III's for free :).

At 8:25am on March 23, 2009, Manuel Marques said…: Nope, not 475's. Only LCIII's... I have three of those, all have Ethernet cards, two have 20 Megs of RAM and the other (which is kept for spares) only has 8 MB.

One of those is currently my webserver - http://babylonlc.no-ip.org:8080

I keep an eye on eBay UK... and there's also a similar auctioning website here in Portugal, I got a complete Performa 5200 (with TV card, 64 MB RAM, and a 60 GB hard drive) for about 60 euros :).

I'll start getting some photos up real soon...
