Pristine condition, fully loaded, all it needs is a new battery and a PRAM reset.

Looks nice & clean in the box, but perhaps the PSU is faulty (maybe just a battery as you say tho') Good luck on it bertyboy. Would be nice if the monitor is also OK.

Fingers crossed, the RAM is worth $90 alone.

For ye antipodean folk, here is a classic nubus card from Apple themselves:
VINTAGE & BRAND NEW Apple 8•24GC NB Video Card

I'd bid for it myself, if the shipping costs to the northern hemisphere weren't so high...

@themacmeister: Do you get down to Hobart much? I spotted this post from last Friday in the newsgroup "aus.computers.mac" that would likely be worth checking out if you do.

Hi Ben (and others),
I have garage full of old Macs that I am planning to dispose of. They
range from a Classic II upwards.
The only problem is that I am in Hobart.
Please let me know if, and what, your are interested in?
Cheers,
Bill

I've seen Bill's posts in the aus newsgroups over the years and hes been a keen Mac supporter for all of that time. It'd be great to see what he was planning on disposing of. His addy if you're interested in checking further: wdixon AT netspace DOT net DOT au

@bertyboy -- I hope that's your bid there, I would kill for that!

PS. I may move to New Zealand due to TradeMe!

Not bidding just yet, but I'm prepared for a big bid, for the pristine condition - even if I pop my dual 533MHz into it - the AirPort card, the 3 x 512MB sticks. Hoping it comes with a power cable too Smile
