This is a 'For Sale' thread. It is not a feeler thread.

Short story:
This computer is ugly, but it is fully functional.

Longer story:
This computer was damaged in shipping by UPS. They reimbursed me for the computer and told me to keep it. So, I replaced the damaged internal parts. I have used this extensively for PhotoShop, DVD burning, and other intensive applications and have not had any issues at all with the computer. I left the case alone. You can buy replacements cases, from places such as ebay and here (http://www.allmac.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=4157). Expect to pay between $100 and $250 for a new or used case, and always check to see that the case is compatible with your system.

Specs:
- Dual 1.8GHz G5
- DVD Burner (Dual Layer, DVD+-R/RW, DVD-RAM)
- 160GB Western Digital SATA HDD (only a few months old)
- Airport Extreme with external antenna
- 1GB PC3200 (4 x 256MB RAM) (Maximum is 4 x 1GB)
- GeForce FX 5200 64MB AGP Video Card
- PCI Slots
- The regular ports (firewire, audio, USB, etc.)
- BYOS (Bring your own software, because none is included).

I'm asking $350, plus exact shipping (via FedEx ground, I will not be shipping computers with UPS any more). You are welcome to pick up and try out in Baltimore. If I don't sell this in the next week or so, I'll most likely put the guts in a new case and sell it on ebay.

Here are some photos. I have cleaned out the peanuts in the photos.

I used to work in Raleigh! It's a very clean city.

I'll have to get back to you on your offer. I've had three people offer to split shipping costs so far.

I may be getting an iPhone, and would rather have a G5. I live in Severn. Let me know. :)

iPhones are cool and all, but I'd much rather have a G5, then have to pay more on my cell bill.

I should have PM'd faster. Wish I knew what order I was in the cue. Congrats to whomever gets this. I'm still up for it if it becomes available.

Personally, I think all you people with Macs should wait for the poor saps who are trying to get their first one;)
