I suppose probably as the boxes were stacked in the post office or a truck it might have fallen from a high place. Seeing it that way its understandable. However maybe I can benefit from some of its components, like that harddrive, which sells for a higher price. It also has 256MB RAM, is that RAM compatible with my G3/333 or my soon to come in the mail Blue G3/400? Looking at it from that point of view, I could still use it. I may not win the auction too :\ Lili >> Lili, The memory in a bondi tray loader is not compatible with either your G3 or the B&W G3. Don't forget you have to pay shipping on this beast ($30+?) so I suggest you take that into account when considering if this is worth it for the price of the HD to you.
