I have a G4 500MHz (AGP Graphics) with 768MB of RAM, an ATI Radeon 8500, and a 30GB HD.

I can put a Rage 16MB Card and 256MB of RAM in it, and sell it for 650 dollars. Let me know

hmm, that sounds like a killer machine
but 650?

and why do you want to give me the crappy vid card?

Dual 450, 16mb vcard, 60gb hd, 672mb ram. 949 + ship. firm.

Will blow the 500 away.

I 700 for the machine with the Radeon 8500. It is because I can sell the Radeon 8500 seperate for over 130 dollars.

If you can get Moxie to do 900 + shipping, that's pretty fair.

I sold my dual 450 with more ram for 1000.. and that was like 5 months ago.

What about mine. Is that too much?

I could sell you a 233MHz iMac if you want...

mac aztec, i could get something similiar to yours for around 500 on ebay, but not duals

i am hesitant to do that, though

anyway, i dont want an old imac, i have a b&w g3, and im looking for for a g4 tower just so i dont have to use my laptop all the time

anyway, is that even yours? or is it your familys computer?

Well, I couldnt find one completed auction for my computer for 500. This was the cheapest one I found...here (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3412205944&category=14912)

Anyways, its my computer. I think I could get about 730-770 dollars for it on ebay, with the Radeon 8500 card...

If you have a B&W G3 tower and want more power, why not just put a G4 upgrade in it?

Ignore moxie mike. He has a history of accusing people of being accusatory.
