PB 100, 170, etc.

Picked up a PowerBook 100 and 170, plus a Jaz drive, Apple Video input card for Performa, LC, etc. and Apple Presentation Kit (last 2 items in original boxes). Ahh, craigslist. I had to drive four hours, so counting gas it was $100ish. But man, you don't find those 170's and 100's in working shape too often...

The guy had a ton of other stuff too, which I had to pass on, like MacProject shrinkwrapped, MacDraw and MacTerminal in original box, etc etc. I still shoulda done it but was at my limit really.

Very cool, especially on the working PB 100. That's one I've always wanted in my collection. 170 and the other boxed stuff is also neat.

Also congratulations on exercising self control. That's one of those things I've been trying to work on... 😛

Self control would have been not driving two hours each way on our anniversary!

Haha

EDIT: But it was at the beach. And it was a sunny day at the beach to take photos. And it's never sunny at the heach in Oregon in February. And I had to do my part to get some old Macs out of that tsunami zone! It's humanitarian work!
