I've decided to sell my Mac off

The Harddrive has problems and the OS9 install goes to crap after a few days.

I have upgrades I'll sell, and I'll sell the original box with original drive system.

I was trying to save it in order to use it in conjuctin with an old laser printer, but I can't get it to operate properly and am about to lose the monitor that goes with it (as part of the package I'm giving to my Parents)

It needs to go.  I will part out the following Items, maybe you guys can help me set prices for the agora:

PowerLogix G3 upgrade for PCI Macs:
It was initially rated at 350Mhz, but runs at 500 very stably.  It has an old socket3 fan screwed on the front to add further cooling

Sonnet IDE 66 upgrade card for PCI Macs:

ATI Rage Orion 16MB PCI Video Card

PowerCurve: 100Mhz processor, 256K cache, 540 Scsi Hardrive and 2X CDrom.  72MB Memory

suggestions for selling price including shipping inside the US?

I would guess like about $150 or so... shipping is going to be high, figure $30.

Sorry AYB, but it's less than 30, imo. :(

I meant for each upgrade, not just the box.

How desperate are you to sell it? I may be interested in it, but it's gonna be a month or two. Like I've said, I've always wanted a mac to play with... do you think it's capable of running OSX?

no, not much hope of OSX.

Anywhoo, I'm getting the printer to operate better now (the tray wasn't all the way in) so I'll at least keep the shell for the printer.  I need to figure out how to print directly from my WIn2000machine

Wow, that response was so quick I didn't know what to do.

No hope for OSX eh? Well, I'll have to pass then. I think I should learn both OS9 and OSX ( If I ever get a job where I'll have to support Macs as well as PC's I'll need the OSX.

Unfortunately, you must pay a premium to learn OSX it seems

Some people also find it's "worth it" to get a sex-change operation.

It isn't?

Never said/implied it wasn't.

If anything, I inferred that while some people feel "it's worth it" there will be others who will not.
