I have a G4 Quicksilver 800 (mint), which is going on Ebay next week. I expect $700-800 for it.

Superdrive, 1gb Ram, Geforce4, Sonnet133, 160GB, Panther & iLife 05 (yes with CD's).

The system the seller has right now is better than both ur guys' machines... well maybe not the QuickSilver, depends on if it is Dual. Read it, then post - besides sometimes the upgrade cards aren't worth it, it'd be better to go with a brand new machine than the upgrade cards - unless you aren't planning to buy a new one for while.

By the way, is it just the basic 40GB HDD or did you get the 80GB one?

it's the 40gig. hence the 80 gig external i can add.

I had an offer for a dual 867, but I don't think that's worth it. The speeds will be pretty much the same, and I would be sacrificing alot of space in a dorm setting.

Is there any way you could sell it and then put the money earned towards one of the computers you want?

I have been considering that...it's not a very far fetched idea.

I could get 600 for the mini, prolly 650.

I have an 18.1 NEC LCD that I could get like 300$ for.

the external drive maybe like 65$

1015$



that would put me close to an imac G5 stock.
