The yard here has over 100 early Mac's from the 128, 512, Plus, SE, Classic,
to Classic II starting at $5 for just the box to $20 for a complete unit.
And must of the thrifts here have them too. So it's not me tossing them I
just do not buy them.

Well this week was pretty busy at auctions and
checking thrift
stores around
town. Many items were picked up with the
following being of
some interest.
some Mac 128 and 512 units, some were tossed as I have too many of these.
This is not the list to say "tossed" on unless you are looking for some
flame. I can't think of anything creative right now, but consider yourself
flamed at least a little.

Mikes little list of things to keep from old mac's
First off you really should take a swing at finding someone who will take
the whole system, maybe even pay for it, or parts of it.
Always keep the following;
Mice
Keyboards
cables
screws and brackets
floppy drives
Hard drives if they work
Plug in cards
Memory
motherboards.
Smaller chassis parts like little doors or breakout panels.
Chassis and tubes are heavy and bulky, so they are the items I don't
generally keep. I have yet to toss anything mac though, always
finding some
who wants it still.
