More about Macs: free Mac giveaway!
Oct. 26th, 2005 02:40 pmDoes anyone want to try one?
I still have some old refurbished machines going spare.
Fastest looking for a home is a PowerMac 4400 - 160MHz PowerPC 603 CPU, 80MB RAM (if I remember rightly), 1.2GB hard disk, Ethernet, MacOS 9.1. Capable very basic Internet machine.
Then there's a LC475, 36MB RAM, 250MB HD, MacOS 8.1 (including install CDs, Norton Antivirus & Utilities, etc.), various apps. Can be supplied with Ethernet card and CD drive for a small consideration - these parts are still worth money!
Finally for now there's a PowerMac 6100/60. PowerPC 601 @ 60MHz, 40MB RAM. Comes with MacOS 8.6 (including install CDs) & various apps. HD yet to be decided but probably a 500MB. No CD but can take an internal SCSI unit.
All come with mouse & keyboard; I should be able to arrange screens for them all as well.
EDIT: sod it, I'll add my old PowerMac 7600/166 as well. About 200MB RAM, 1GB + 2GB SCSI hard disks included, 9GB 2ndary drive negotiable extra. PCI machine. Accepts CPU upgrades to G3 or even G4, in theory runs OS X - I used to run 10.2 on it until some kind of NVRAM corruption set in and made it too unstable.
