Re: Keep the Sawtooth?

2011-04-21 Thread Geke
 I have every model of G4 tower Yikes, Sawtooth, Gigabit Ethernet,
 Digital Audio, Quicksilver, MDD. I'm clearing out a few things and I'm
 trying to think of a compelling reason to not get rid of the Sawtooth
 and I can't think of one. Is there one?

That’s a nice collection! What are you keeping them for?
Just kidding... but let me know what you are using them for and I’ll
know better what to tell you.

One good reason to get rid of G4s could be that they make great
computers for less well-off schools or families.

I did re-equip one school. Someone said they were short a mouse and
asked if I could spare one. When I went to drop it off I found a
motley collection of really old Macs. Seemed like every machine was
running different software with every possible version of MacOS. I
knew from a teacher at a private school that they'd just upgraded
their older machines which were sitting in a store room so I went over
and asked them for them. I ended up replacing all the schools
computers and set them up with identical software. I ended up
replacing the schools computers a couple of times as better hardware
became available to me. Also quite a few computer went out to
students.

Because then your collection will be incomplete...

If you have space for all the others, I think you can hold onto one 
more---yes? And Vic is right...

I guess I should mention that I have about 125 Apple computers. Even
though I've explained that this isn't unusual, the girlfriend remains
unconvinced. Anyways I'm trying not to let the cubic footage of Macs,
software  peripherals increase so I'm eying different machines.

Keep the first models. They are more valuable in the future as they
are the first to get scrapped.

When I was saving computers I saved the biggest and most maxed out. In
retrospect that was incorrect. Most collectors I dealt with wanted the
very first models.

The Mac 128 is usually worth more than any of the other early
macs...as an example.
