Over the years the local Deseret Industries thrift store has supplied me some amazing Macintosh finds. Here they are!

hardware:

Macintosh IIcx (4mb ram / 40 Mb hdd / Nubus video card/ my cousin used it as a linux server)

Power Computing Power 110 (32mb ram / 1gb hdd/ sold it to a mac dealer, paid 10, got 40)

Apple Messagepad (the original, with the leather case and the stylus)

Macintosh 128k (just the tower, no keyboard or mouse, serial dates to april 1984)

Bondi iMac (32Mb ram / 4gb hdd/ 233 Mhz)

Power Macintosh G3 All-In-One (128 Mb ram / 10 gb hdd/ 266 Mhz / donated to a local school, my aunt actually, for second graders to learn to type on)

B/W Stylewriter 1200 (donated with the g3aio)

Software:

Power Computing restore CD (contains System 7.5.5)

Mac OS 8.5 install CD

Hopefully many more to come!

Nice good crop of hardware you have gotten from them.

Unfortunately I am unable to locate a goodwill or other such group in my area that has Macs and Apple related stuff on even a semi-regular basis.

I really need to pay a visit to the local St. Vincent De Paul to see if they have anything. I keep telling myself I'll go one day but never do.
