FOR SALE: a PowerMac G5 1.8 GHz Dual Processor (air-cooled). This computer is in immaculate condition both functionally and cosmetically. I purchased it new in April of 2005, but it is one of the last of the *June 2004* model. The serial number is G8505021QPL. It was assembled at the US plant (G8) in the first week of February 2005, two months prior to the end of the production run of this model. It has been kept in my home office it's entire life, an air conditioned smoke-free environment, on an RF filtered, surge protected battery backup power source. It was used intensively for approximately one year, and only sparingly thereafter. In 2008 I was forced to purchase an Intel Mac in order to use the latest versions of the applications I work with, and it has basically just been taking up space since then. In 2009 the motherboard was diagnosed as bad by the Apple Store in Pittsburgh, and a replacement motherboard was installed by an Apple Certified tech. I really liked this computer and am reluctant to part with it, but I am not using it, so it's time for it to go to someone who can put it to work.
The configuration is mostly stock with the following exceptions. The original 80GB Maxtor hard drive has been replaced with a 160GB Maxtor, and I will ship it with a fresh install of Tiger. Also, the RAM has been upgraded to 4 GB total. The white Pro kybd and Pro mouse, and ALL of the original disks, documentation, and accessories are included, and it will be shipped in the original factory shipping carton. In this configuration, I am asking $450 plus actual shipping cost. (ESTIMATED shipping is approx $25-50 depending on distance from western PA.) I have the following optional upgrades that I can include or omit, per the buyer's wishes: an AirPort Extreme card for an additional $20 a second hard drive (Maxtor 300 GB) for an additional $30 an ATI 9650 video card (256 MB and dual DVI support) for an additional $100 If you're interested, I'm happy to try to answer any questions you may have, and willing to consider any counter-offers.
