Here in Denver, you can go to any of a dozen thrift
stores and buy nearly any
sort of older MAC for $5 upwards, though few are as high as $50. Oddly
enough, the newer decked-out ones are often quite inexpensive, while the
older classic mac's are high, e.g. $25 or so. I've yet to go out on any day
when I couldn't come back with at least a dozen mac's though. I've yet to
take one on, however. I don't even accept them when they're offered for free.
It's too frustrating getting the boxes open.
Any Mac but the compact ones are dirt-easy to open. I became very appreciative
of that a while ago when I found a IIcx trapped in a cage, jammed under a big
telly. Thanks to the easy opening procedure, I could nevertheless open it up
through the holes in the mesh and extract NIC, GFX card and SIMMs. If only
every machine were as easily opened as a Mac or PS/2.
