hey guys,
im trying to find locally :-) an old Macintosh II , X or FX computer. the one, with either 1 or 2 floppy drives. all i want is that i just want it to power up, but if someone has one that doesnt work or doesnt work properly let me know anyways, im sure we could work something out!!
hope someone can help me :-)
let me know either way!!!!
Oh man, a few years ago I had all of those, but had to part with them as I had to move from a large house into a small apartment. Up to that point I had at least one and sometimes more examples of most 680x0 Mac systems. All I have left is a IIci in storage and an 840AV that is in need of a PRAM battery.
I was also recently given a 6400/200 (no boot) and a Beige G3 (working great but with a flaky monitor, lol). My dream back when was a Blue & White G3, but alas finances then and now heve preventing realization of that dream. Someday if the universe replies...................
what a shame!!!! :-)
thats what im trying to do, is get atleast one of every apple/macintosh out there, lisa well, one day ill have one :-) but right now, im too young to afford one (im 19)
ive got about 15 diffrent models at the moment, im getting an 9500 next week an 8500 also in the near future!
from the macs you've got left, would you wanna give them to me or sell them or something?? id be more then happy to take them off your hands if you want!! :-)
get back to me!
thanks again
I have an SE for free. I guess it's close to a II.

Although I love the SE, a Mac SE is not even close to a Mac II. The Mac SE is an all-in-one and the Mac II is a desktop box that had 6 nubus slots and a separate monitor. The Mac II also supported color monitors.
yeah, i know that also!! but i took the SE and took it apart!! i sell it for parts probably!! you dont see many HD/FD logic boards floating around!! :-)
i did tho find a Mac II, incredible monster machine isnt it!!! its so cool!! :-)
No, The IIfx is way cooler, and by the way, the most expensive Mac ever made - $13,000 with a 160 MB HD, 24-bit video card, 13" RGB Monitor, and a whopping 32 MB of RAM! I couldn't afford to load it up to 128 MB...
SE30s were very cool, Cubes were too, Lisas, Mac 128Ks, Network Servers (very industrial) eMates, Newtons, all-in-one G3s and many others, but my favourite has to be the 20h Anniversary Mac and I think it may have been the most expensive all-in-one Mac ever at around $10,000!
What's you're favourite Mac model?

hey dan,
haha, well, i wouldnt know about the IIFX, all i have is the II :-P
my favorite model, not too sure, the one piecers are neat, very well constructed, and easy to fix. but when jobs was fired from apple in the late 80's, i find the 90's macintosh's were very cheap until he returned in 97. i have an old LC 630 and plastic parts broke off, the bezel on the 9500 broke, they just seem cheaper then the 80's ones were. yeah the TAM would be a sick computer to own, so advance for its time!! LCD built in, wow!! and well, apple lisa, the complete piece for anyones collection!!! :-), id kill to have one of thoses!! :-)
