i think this should help

any time they’ve been bad is either a failed HDD or me trying to overclock them. few have been dead dead, i’ve not tampered with this box …yet… i will have to wipe them or do factory restores on them. usually i do about 1 per person

Do you have a 1.42ghz model with airport and Bluetooth? If so I’d definetly pay to ship it if you’re in the US

Yeah. BT 1.1 was an option for these g4 minis, which really surprised me also.

they all have BT listed on the tags

I’we logged back in because of seeing this.

What are you interested in trading for

The cost of shipping.

Get me a weight.

first things first, i gotta wipe the drives on these things. wooo are those old ODD drivers not happy or at the very least it’s slow going. then i’ll start packing and boxing them up. likely some will be plain boxes and other USPS flatrate.

EDIT: while i’m at it all this retro hardware and video cards need to go too

one is a video card from a power mac. i call dibs on the 9600gt, i think it has a fried VRM anyways. some older motherboards, pentium 2/3 up to 775.

Any dual socket?

YES! i have a dual socket server board that is an older board with ddr1 ecc. i also dual socket 771 machine that needs converted to something newer but, id need to dissemble that machine and it’s not at my house, also major power hog at 15watts per ram stick.

Oof thats what I got now with my mac pro its why I’m on OSX so none of the ram is even on lol. I’m looking for a dual socket AMD or pent 2/3 board atm. I figure if I do my classic machine, I’ll do it right. Might as well.

well i know xp and later are the only ones that can use dual socket. even with tons of hacking and patching they couldn’t really get 98 to do anything with a second core.
the dual socket ddr1 system might be interesting with retro gaming but, you’d need some sort of pci x video card or stick with pci since it doesn’t have agp

oddly enough i stuck that dual socket 771 into a g4 case i converted to atx / etax with an eatx mobo tray kit, 70 fucking us dollars for a flipping aluminum mobo tray.

i also have quite a few CPUs too, also a few trays of RAM

Saw your post over at vogons. I am interested in probably all of the non-apple stuff you want to get rid of.

Lmk weight on the mini’s and fuckit what cpu’s do you have?

sorry i’m slow guys, stuffs crazy right now, not enough hours in the day. i’l; get info on cpus and weight, got a hand full of minis wiped so now i can weigh and ship.

PHOTO DUUUMMP!!!

TBH, they’ll be used in a cluster experiment, then as servers and a desktop or two. _o if you don’t have time to wipe, don’t worry about it ;D

Also interested in that slot board. CPU model?

continued dump
