Speaking of computer collecting, here's a bit of a sidetrack on another forum of which I'm a member.

Does anyone have more PowerPC Macs than I do?

Can also confirm. My one Mainstreet has a cracked screen but I also have a PDQ with a 12" screen that I bought as dead to fix the screen on the Mainstreet (nothing wrong with it). That one is very nice TFT although limited by its SVGA resolution.
Glad that you managed to score the King of MDD's.
I'm going to check out the dual 1.42 I've been pursuing for the past 2 weeks right after lunch to-day.
With any luck I'll have it up and running this evening.

@bunnspecial very impressive! I enjoy reading your list as you update it. I'm currently up to 23 computers, 16 macs, 7 PCs. Of the 16 macs, 13 are PowerPC, 1 is 68k, and 2 are Intel.
Very happy with the way my collection of computers is coming along
Very happy with the way my collection of computers is coming along
Lets see what I got
(In no particular order)
PowerPC macs:
14 inch iBook G4 Late 2004 1.33Ghz 768MB ram Radeon 9200 Mobilty (It has No keyboard a Dead HDD and who ever changed the HDD in it before I owned it did a Bad Job so its missing a few screws) at least the battery holds a good charge
Power Macintosh G3 beige desktop 768MB ram 266Mhz G3 (got this one as a Christmas gift heh it came almost stock only had a Upgraded CD drive and some more ram it still had the stock 4GB FireBall Sadly that FireBall Fire balled on me in a puff of smoke) it currently has a SATA card in it with No HDD and ODD (I have a bad shortage of Hard drives) I Have G4 coming from the US For it So I hope to install leopard on it heh
Power Mac G4 450Mhz sawtooth 512MB of ram (currently has a rage 128 PCI in it) this was my first PowerPC mac sadly its in a sad state. it is my test bed mac for OSs and the such like... it currently has a 10GB HDD in it (it came to me with 2 HDDs a 40GB segate and a 60GB maxtor the maxtor died on me and its front cover is now my drink coaster) I also have a 1.5Ghz Giga designs CPU upgrade for it (it is configurable for 133Mhz bus Macs too its a 1.25Ghz 7455B CPU sold as 1.4Ghz and runs fine at 1.5Ghz with fresh thermal paste) the sawtooth currently has OS X DP3 installed on it (I did get OS X sever 1.2 installed buuut my mouse and keyboard don't work with it i seem to remember it requiring apple keyboard and mouse)
Power Mac G4 Dual 1.42Ghz MDD FW800 1GB of ram (currently has a Radeon 9000) I got this one for £20 because it had a Dead PSU so I got a working PSU and it fired right up (I did a separate MR post on this mac when I first got it) I downgraded the boot rom on this one to the FW400 boot rom to boot OS9 I regret doing that since not only has it disabled my airport card slot there is now ways to boot OS9 on a stock FW800 mac... I have at times Used this G4 as my main computer (Mainly I had to use it for a Month because my main computer a hackintoshed laptop had died on me I can say that it handled tenforfox with 25 tabs open very well)
and my last PowerPC mac My Dual 2Ghz Powermac 7,3 PowerMac G5 this one is currently on lone to my brother since he needed a new computer... it has only 1GB of ram but it does have a FireGL X3 fitted that runs nicely it is in very nice condition for its age heh (I fitted my airport card from my MDD and used a sowing needle as my air port antenna it works quite well lol)
now for my intel Macs
My very Frist Mac was a early 2006 Core Duo iMac 4,1 I got this as a birthday gift back in 2013 and it severed me very well up until its death... by the time it died I had upgraded it from a 1.83Ghz Core Duo 2GB of ram and a 160GB HDD to a 2Ghz Core 2 duo T7200 with 3GB of ram and a 2TB HDD it ran mountain lion very well) sadly the X1600 Graphics card in it died an artifactual death LOL I have a Video of this mac on my YT channel back before it died
next is my mid 2007 15 inch Macbook pro I got this off ebay for quite cheap at the time it was very beaten up its a 2.2Ghz baseline model I used it as my main machine till the 8600M GT graphics gave out then about a year later I reflowed it and it worked well for 6 months then it died again so i reflowed it and its still working till this day but I think the heat pipes have leaked so the heatsink is not very effective (i have repasted it a few times) this machine has been through hell and back (everything from sub zero temps to my brother stepping on it once) it currently has no HDD and 4GB of ram... It also has a New battery (20 cycles or so) (since the battery it came with was shot and i got a new battery for it when i got it)
and My last (and latest) intel mac is my Late 2006 13 inch 2Ghz Core 2 duo Blackbook this machine came to me for free from a Medical doctor who was with me at the time for my medical problems I stuck a convo about my Macs etc and he told me he had an old Macbook lying around and he said I cold have it witch was very nice of him heh it came to me completely stock (was still running 10.4.11 tiger!) the only problems with it are the battery was dead as a door nail so i chucked that and the keyboard can be a bit flaky (some times the R or more keys can stop working otherwise it works fine its quite a nice little machine)
so yeah thats all my macintoshes described in detail hope it all makes sense heh

That brings me up to 63 PPC Macs.
I can't compete but i do have some vintage pieces, and have owned a few more over the years.
I used to have a Quadra 840AV (hooked up to a VCR!), G3 AiO, and a beige G3 (w/ 20" Apple Trinitron!) that was my main machine for quite a while. There was an orange clamshell iBook and then an Indigo iBook Firewire. I briefly owned a matching Indigo iMac but i didn't have it long, we never really connected.
My first Mac (that i still have to this day) was a PowerBook 2300c (40 MB RAM, 750 MB HD - upgraded to 20 GB). Damn i love that machine. I picked up working DuoDock for it (still works!) and an Ethernet MicroDock. I used the crap out of it in the mid to late 90s. These days, I fire it up every now and again for fun. I also found another one for sale locally a few years ago so i grabbed that too, it's in amazing shape and has 56 MB RAM and an OWC hard drive upgrade. It came with the Apple 15" AV monitor, another DuoDock, and all the original boxes (!).
From the 2000s, I have a MDD G4 867 + 17" Studio Display, a Cube with an 800 GHz upgrade + 20" Cinema Display. I use the Cube all the time, the MDD was sort of a stopgap after my first Cube threw a rod (VRM meltdown).
My collection is fairly minimal but that's not how my wife would describe it

I see a Few of you guys have G3 AIOs... Man what id kill ahem do for a G3 AIO heh (Im also on the look out for a 1.42Ghz eMac heh)
I'm still sort of kicking myself for passing on the one that the guy who sold me my G3 minitowers and a couple of other computers had.
I might still contact him and go back up to get it if he has it-it sure would have been a lot better on that trip, though.
Hey, do you have any photos? Thanks in advance
Most of them are scattered around here in various places, although I will try to put some photos up in this thread. I'm still working on getting my "computer room"(including all the networking, etc) set up, so would like to wait until then.
I bought it for a song from a local community college, they were selling them by the palette
And you've reminded me that i replaced my beige G3 with a 1.42 eMac! I also had the first Mac mini, that was the first Mac i bought brand new! How could i forget! Oh and then the iMac G5. I must have memory corruption!For those in the UK looking to augment their collections, I noticed this new listing today

it is for a 1GH TiBook. Those are sought after as being the best Powerbooks (hacked Powerbook G4s aside) that natively boot OS9 and this one is in decent nick. What takes it out of the ordinary is that it comes with all of its bundled software, including the rare-as-rocking-horse-poo Restore disc.
Usual disclaimers; Not my listing and as I already have three of the 1 giggers as well as the software I shall not be bidding.

it may be blasphemy in this particular forum but... keep saving for the Mac Pro, they are sublime. And i daresay the enjoyment you'll get out of that gunmetal beauty will outstrip that of the TiBook (i, too, lusted after the Tibook back in the day).ok that is REALY tempting... Welp there goes saving up for a Mac pro

I found the price of the early MPs has taken a bit of a dive recently. I got this for a couple of quid less than the Graphics card I put in it to run El Capitan betas. Despite appearances it was pristine - no scratches or marks except some oxidisation on one of the sleds inside. I have a feeling the TiBook will go for a little bit more and will probably be a better investment for the future oddly enough.
sadly thats Collection only... Medical problems stop me from collecting things also im in the market for a 4,1 (I need features of the Socket 1366 Mac pros that earlier mac pros don't provide) but that is a Nice snatch there for a 1,1 my power Mac G5 cost twice as much as that

I had exactly the same kitchen cabinets in my last rented flat. Hated them. Previous tenant was a less than fastidious cleaner and I spent a day cleaning dried-on grease from all the grooves.OT, but this thread reminds me of the "I have three PS3's" guy on YouTube.
Plus I have three 1GHz TiBooks.
