I visited a forum user, @Surrat in the remote mid-west, and received a nice amount of Macs, amongst them was a DLSD. My first DLSD was a 17" which kernel panicked and was missing a lot, and eventually caught fire. This one, although not in perfect shape, is great! I already disassembled the screen, which was way better than the 12". I took the screen apart because the hinges under the clutch cover were loose!

Left side damage (looks like it was dropped with the charger):

Nice! I don't want to be a hoarder but there are two PPC Macs high on my want list. One is a DLSD and the other is a G5 that isn't liquid cooled.

Yes! This one was definitely one I was keeping my eye out on. It is some-what tricked out:
