Hey all-
I found an eMac in a recycling pile today. The machine works perfectly as far as I can tell; slight burn in and a few scratches on the case, but nothing major.
Specs:
700MHz G4
256MB RAM
40GB HD
Combo Drive
Doesn't have an AirPort card. But hey, what can you expect for free? 🙂

Looks like a great spare kinda mac to have around, esp since it can do OS X and 9, a good gateway machine.

Nice! :O My school still uses some of these exact models.

The one eMac from a school without pencil stabs. Good work!

Nice work - the eMacs are pretty cool.
I did a heap of work in a Uni lab a few years back on one with exactly the same specs as this.

Yeah, I'm still not sure if I'm going to use it or not; I've got a Quicksilver running at 867MHz, and it seems much snappier than the eMac. Plus, the QS is a lot more expandable.
The eMac is definitely quieter, though 😉
