I love these machines, in my opinion the best looking machines apple has ever made. So I wanna see what you guys got. I will post mine tomorrow after I find my digital camera.

the QS PMG4 is my favorite mac.

Well, I've since sold it, but what the heck. Here's my old G3:

I'd take a picture of my in-progress G4 to ATX case conversion, but somehow I don't think that's what you're looking for...

Yes, I agree, the Quicksilver had the best exterior styling of any G4 PM.

Well, I was inspired by this mod (which is truly awesome) which is by a fellow MR member:

And I haven't gotten that far yet as I'm waiting for parts still, but here's what I've got so far:

I LOVE my Sawtooth. I make sweet love to it. lol. Too bad it has to be revealed with a 20 dollar camera.

And I got a "Black" G3, and a tray-loading iMac. Awesome stuff.

I dont love the B&W G3 but I love the G4 MDD and Quicksilvers. If anyone has pics of them please post.

iJawn108 · Sep 17, 2006

Not mine but sooo lovely.

I was thinking of buying one used as my first mac... but they are still way over priced. Some guy I found locally with one wanted $800 for the tower alone.

$200!?? Dang, that's an incredible deal! And a really nice setup to boot! Congratulations. Ah, I need to make my Cube live again, it's so sad sitting in the closet all alone!

I'm not sure what's wrong with it. Pretty sure the motherboard is fried.
Here are some photos of it from back in the day:

use it as a kleenex box cover

Silentwave · Sep 17, 2006

That's a great deal you got! I'd stick an upgraded CPU in there and call it a day

840quadra · Sep 18, 2006

I still have them both, just not in the same room anymore.

peter32892 · Sep 18, 2006

FF_productions · Sep 18, 2006
