BOAT LOAD of stuff *UPDATED!*

I got a bunch of Mac Stuff right now. First up is a heavily upgraded PowerMac 7500/100 which now has a 200Mhz 604e Processor in it, as well as 160MB Ram, a Mach64 Ati PC Card, Video input/output (RCA) a 4GB Baracuda 10k RPM harddrive, and a DVD-RAM Drive (SCSI).

It came with the VRAM maxed out, although I am going to use the video card that I pulled from the other computer.

Next is a PowerMac 9500 that HAD the Mach64, will have a radeon 7000 in it. Not sure of the specs, will get to that later. I know the RAM is maxed out, has a 68-pin Dual-channel SCSI Controller (PCI) as well as a 24x CD-RW with a IDE->SCSI adapter. The scsi card is not used. it has a 1GB SCSI Drive (50-pin) as well as a SCSI Jaz Drive, and another 2GB HDD (7200RPM with a 68->50-pin Adapter)

No idea what speed it is, but I got the 200Mhz 604 from that in the 7600.

Accesories:

I got the 100Mhz 601 Card from the 7500, as well as a Mach XLR8 card G3 Card carrier, but the G3 I have is only 266Mhz. The guy couldn't get it working, but I bet I can.

I got a bunch of other PC Stuff, including a 64MB ATI Radeon 7500 AGP for a pc, as well as a SCSI RAID controller for a pc (PCI) with Cache and Battery backup.

Gigabit ethernet cards (!) and some other stuff. I will sort through these on the next few days.

All it took was putting out a call on craigslist for stuff.

I traded a Used spare 160GB ATA Harddrive for all of this

Oh, forgot to mention, I got an ADB Apple Keyboard II, as well as tear-drop mouse, and a 15" Apple Mulitple Scan monitor!

I will look through this later, but I wanted to tell you all the good news!

So begins my foray into old macs again >.<

I got the PowerMac 9500 up after This little fiasco And and found the specs for it:

352MB RAM, Interleaved!

PCI ATI Mach64 w/ unknown VRAM. will find out later

came with a PPC 604e 250MHz CPU Daughtercard. I now got a G3 266 overclocked to G3 333Mhz using an XLR8 ZIF Adapter

Adaptec Battery Backed SCSI-2/LVDS PCI Card. This was NOT a PC one!

USB 1.1 Card (dead) and 100Mbps Ethernet card (SMB or something)

18.3GB SCSI Drive and 4.2GB SCSI Drive. Both SCSI-2 68-pin

The CD-RW didn't have a SCSI -> IDE adapter. It's actually an adapter for 68-pin to 50-pin (CD-RW was 50, was hooked to the RAID Card on the second channel)

Sorry for the massive update I was just going with what the guy I got it from told me. I will update the original listing
