I think you'll get more for the parts. For instance, the power supply in good used condition tends to go for about $60 on eBay, much more than a Sawtooth PS. This is despite my being able to get a complete working Gigabit or Digital Audio machine on Craigslist for not much more than that. --~--~--

I think you'll get more for the parts. For instance, the power supply in good used condition tends to go for about $150 or more on eBay, much more than a Sawtooth PS. This is despite my being able to get a complete working Gigabit or Digital Audio machine on Craigslist for much less than that. --~

I've always thought this was cruel, but have you considered "parting it out"? Recently, someone gave me a Yikes! for around $20, and shipped it to me for $30 via USPS (took forever). Its added value to me and maybe to him, was that it was being used/recycled in a musician's environment, t

I'm going to be getting a reasonably new iMac very soon. And decided I would want to sell my system, I have been trying to find listings on ebay or the swaplist but I haven't found any that matched my configuration very well. I wanted to come through here and hear from much more experienced users
