I got a Macintosh Classic II from eBay.
Excellent condition, stock specs & I'm extremely happy with it.

Whoo hoo!
How's the yellowing of the case? What were the specs? I used to have a Classic, now I'm looking into MAYBE trying to get one again sometime soon.

How's the yellowing of the case? Let's see ....
On a scale of 1 to 10 where 1 is mintcondition & 10 is a banana -- I'd saaaayyyy ....
2? 3? Around there.
What were the specs? CPU > 68030@16MHz
MPU > 2MB
SPU > 80MB
No software included -- I asked the hardrive be wiped.

My first Mac as a Classic II. I used it for about 3 years until I got my 6100. I added an FPU to it, so it was actually pretty fast at Floating point stuff ( at least until I recompiled the code as native Power PC on the 6100 ), but slower that dirt for everything else. I remember, I could not have an active SLIP connection and print at the same time, that was annoying.
Still, it was a great little computer for it's day. I still have it, but last time I tried to boot it, it refused to come on. Some day, I may fix it, and bring Mach 10 up on it ( the UNIX platform I learned quite abit of UNIX on ).
