If you find any machines "new-in-box" most likely they won't work because the logic board capacitors will have leaked by now -- not to mention that if no one has removed the logic board battery there's about a 50% chance it will have leaked with much worse consequences. These things aren't maintenance-free, even just sitting in a box. Jeff Walther -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
