Quicksilver 733..... now a 1.4 with Mercury Extreme!
Geforce3
1 GIG Ram
17" CRT ADC Studio Display
iSub
ProSpeakers
Games like Halo, 4x4 Evoc2,Giants etc.

The Good.....
ill let all this go cheaper then you will find on Ebay or anywhere else.:) Its collecting dust. Still has the 733 daughter card & lots of games.
The Bad......
The ethernet doesnt seem to see my router though it works when wired direct to my cable modem or will work with ethernet card in the PCI slot.
Power supply fan on rear sometimes wont spin up by itself. Sometimes i have to give it a nudge.
The Ugly....
Monitor has a drill mark on it on the top when i couldnt remove a screw for cleaning and tried to drill it out.
The rear air intakes which are very small on Quicksilver have been drilled out with larger holes.

Go ahead and make a offer, this machine will still mop the floor with any Mini , I should know because i have a 1.42 Mini. Anyways I want to get rid of this old workhorse. It can still be upgraded with Dual Cpu's and the 9800 video card if one wanted to do so.

Oh man I love the Quicksilvers, they really are the nicest looking Macs ever. I'd make an offer, but wouldn't want to insult you:p

Ill post some pictures tomorrow, you seen one quicksilver you have seen them all. Im not looking for any trades nor getting rich on this just a decent offer so i can unload this thing. I must have a half dozen games for this thing,Halo,RTCW,Giants,Wingnuts,UT2003,Nascar racing 2002,Medal of Honor and a few more all included. I will say when a quicksilver is hooked up to a isub,pro speakers and adc display it looks and sounds pretty good.

Didnt want to break things up but if i dont get any offers in the next week or two I may break this up and get rid of it part by part, To tell you the truth i was looking for around $500-$600 for the whole thing with buyer perhaps splitting shipping.

Very nice indeed, I especially like how the side access panel just opens and lays down- very cool.

Best access panel i have ever seen on a computer, This was Apple at the top of their game in my view,Quicksilver/Cube everything after those two have been downhill design wise and in styling in my view. 4-5 years later these machines can still be made current and can still smoke a mini and iMacG5 if its been upgraded. WOW! All it needs is a home and a 9800 in it:D

Ya know I would be interested in the computer itself and not the monitor. How Much?

make me a offer if you want, you can do it here or Private mail I dont care, or perhaps i should say is what is all this worth to you minus the Monitor? Guess i could allways make an aquarium out of that monitor :cool: An ADC monitor just isnt worth much to 95% of the world if you know what i mean. It was a good idea by apple to have everything in one cable but the world went another direction. Still its pretty cool to have everything in clear polycarb.

Not really, i mean this is a awesome deal the games alone would cost you a couple hundred, the 1.4 merc extreme by itself is going today for what about $300 bucks? im just looking for a fair offer nothing silly. Like I posted earlier if there isnt anyone who wants this I may break it all up and sell part by part but really would like to keep the set together, matching isub and pro speakers. Do they still make those i dont even know.
