Hi. I just picked up 2 LC475s from a local computer place. <snip> Does anyone know of a good place on the web that I could pick up a set? I looked at eBay, but wanted to see if there was anything cheaper first.
The shipping is probably more than the items are worth. For things like this, it is good to state your geographical location. That way if someone knows of a local supplier you can skip the shipping costs. For example, in Austin, TX, the Goodwill Computer Works store has a bunch of Extended Keyboard IIs for either $5 or $10 and mice are under $5. I haven't checked the keyboard prices in a while which is why I'm uncertain on those.
Also, I forgot to mention, I'd also be looking for a couple of Ethernet connections for them so I can connect them to my LAN.
Also at the Goodwill Computer Works store, their Mac Network Card bin has several LC PDS Ethernet cards for $5 each. Some are AAUI and some are (or were last time I examined the selection) 10baseT. If they only have AAUI, they also have some AAUI to 10BaseT transceivers but that adds to the cost.
Of course that doesn't help a lot if you're not in the Austin area.
You might also try Small Dog electronics. In the past they have had a bunch of the Umax keyboards and mice either on their Garage Sale page or their Parts page for very low prices. I don't know if they still have any.
