Three Free Macs
Posted by: kondspi on 2009-11-17 17:56:43 I got an MDD (DP 1.0), Sawtooth, and 9600/200 (with XLR8 processor) for free today. All of them came with disks and dox. Also got 3 floppy disks, a zip disk, a USB FDD, and 9 DVI-VGA adapters from a different source. A good haul.

I'd keep the 9600 for collector's purposes. The Sawtooths are nice systems -- I use one as my file server -- but they are not particularly unique or collectable, and are fairly poky as daily drivers. You could look into a CPU upgrade, but that still wouldn't get you anywhere near the throughput of the MDD.
Posted by: Mars478 on 2009-11-18 06:47:52 WAHH This makes my curb find look like crap! Hahahaha Nice find dude, I want an MDD.
Posted by: ChristTrekker on 2009-11-18 07:31:13 Any free G4 makes me jealous. :approve: Good find!
Posted by: Unknown_K on 2009-11-18 11:45:44 Nice systems. The 9600 would have been better if it was a 604EV, but with a G3 upgrade it should rock anyway.
