 There's a guy at TRW sometimes with MacII's for $5...as-is, obviously.
 I'd be happy to pick one up for you, if you're interested at all. I
 grabbed one a few months ago that had an 8*24GC card and an Asante NIC in
 it. All said and done, $20 landed me a IIfx (40mhz/68030) that does
 1280x1024 in 16bit mode. 
Thanks, but no need.  My $5 IIci was similarly equipped.  Even though it's
a tad slower than a IIfx, I prefer the IIci because it uses ordinary 30-pin
SIMMs (I pulled out the 8Mb and dropped in 32Mb for playing with my pictures
in their native enviroment in preparation for cutting some Mac HFS CD-ROMs
for long-term backup).

Another bit of fun is that I'm using a Linux box as an Appleshare File
Server.  It even mounts and shares HFS CD-ROMs.  No magic - just the netatalk
package, follow the directions and share away!
