I an looking for free old computers. And I mean FREE (or a trade for stuff in my other lots). Don't care about the specs though it must not have many dents, scratches ect in the case. Post offers.

Got a range on those computers? I have a Mac 512K with a 400KB floppy drive, and I doubt you'd be happy with it.

Some spec ranges may be good.

That would be great! Got a KB and mouse to go with it?

As for your other comment, any computer will do, PC or Mac.

Dude, you have BAD timing. I just dropped off a ton and I mean literally like a ton of Macs and PCs, accessories, and everything at a electronic recycler.

Sorry, no KB/Mouse. :(

I have a PIII, 9GB hard drive, DVD-ROM, CD-RW, ZIP-100, but I can't give it away... also have a Newton 130, but that can't be given away either. They can be yours however with the right amount of cash.

Hey there reberto !

I have a couple old IBMs you can have. PS/2 series (that is the actual model, not just the type of keyboard).

Specs: Not sure, though I believe they are 386s with 20 or 25 MHz processors. One has a floppy drive and I think both have a hard drive. (Not sure on that, though.)

Shipping is a killer, probably about $50 or more unless you know someone in central Wisconsin.

Lastly, you still interested in the B&W G3? Could do one major shipment then.

What do you currently have available?

I have some Game Boy Color games, a e-Reader, Some old (working?) SCSI HD's, a screen (bezel and all) from a Powerbook 1400c, tons of computer cables, some N64 games and a sort of working Palm Vx (It will turn on but you need to tap the stylus about 1/2 a inch diagnoaly from what you want to click on. The battery might just have to be removed and fully reset, not just the button on the back. AS-IS!). Here is a list of what I have EVEN MORE of!

Targus laptop case (it held my 1400c and the Stylewriter 2200 with room to spare.)
Xbox Advanced AV cables
Lord Of The Rings: Return of the King (Xbox)
Cel Damage (GC)
TimeSplitters 2 (GC)
The Italian Job (GC, no manual)
Family Guy: Frekin' Sweet Collection
Rev. A-D iMac modem
Powerbook 8x CD-ROM drive (Pulled from a 1400c.) Still has the faceplate on snug.
Powerbook Floppy drive (again, from a 1400c) Works!
CoolMac Keyboard (white/clear)
Axis Game pad (Blue/clear, looks like a Playstation controller. Also has a PC game port to USB adapter on it so it does work with PC and Mac needs NO drivers)
Powerbook 500 series AC adaptor (with power cable)
Apple Color Stylewriter 2200 (portable) with working battery, some extra ink packs drivers (on floppys)
128 meg PC-133 ram chip (pulled working from a Blue and white)
Rosewill AGP 4x-8x PC video card (seen here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...N82E16814164054 ) NEVER USED! (Though it has been opened. I got a better video card and the card as not used.)

What do you have for N64 games?

I have a PowerBook 5300cs with 32MB RAM and is currently running OS 8.5 (HD I believe is somewhere between 800MB and 2GB) It comes with power adapter and floppy module.

I also have two old IBM model PS/2 computers (the first to use the PS/2 port, I believe.)

Anyway, I haven't tested them since I use a laptop. Yours for shipping + two N64 games?

I don't know yet what I would want to do for the 5300cs
