I really should find out if my Macintosh II, with
the scribbled date
under
the lid, is rare or not,
I know the original macs all had sigs in the case (128, 512s, plus, se,
and I think into the SE/30 is when they stopped)... I have also heard
rumor that the original II series had sigs or similar in the case (II,
IIx, IIcx)... but being as I dont have those 3 (yet), I can't check for
myself.
Hopefully, I'll have my computer room cleaned up and set up within a week,
or so. Once that is done, it's time to open and inspect my Macs for stuff
like that...
But hey... I am sure if you took it to Antiques Road
Show, they would
tell you it is worth a few grand easy.
Heh, heh... then I just might have to sell it to someone there ;-)
just to make
you jealous Chris... ;-)
Well... at least as of tomorrow, we will have a fair fight when swinging
SE/30's... I'm driving into NYC to pick up an SE/30 and an 840AV with a
SpigotProAV card (the SE/30 is pretty well loaded, 32mb RAM with 200mb
HD... so it looks like I will finally get around to installing NetBSD on
a Mac... and I have to look into the Spigot card... if it can capture to
MPEG, I might turn the 840 into a standalone VCD burner... but from first
checks, looks like the Spigot captures to a propritary JPEG format)

Hmmm, pretty nice. Yea, I stuffed 32MB RAM into my SE/30. And I do think I
just may have a 1 GB HDD to stick in there too. The 840AV does sound nice.
Maybe I can score the Quadra 800 here at work. Anyone have a sled and
faceplate to stick a CD-ROM in the Quadra 800?
