I have too many computers.
This is a Mac G4 "Quicksilver". I've replaced the (dead) power supply with a non-Apple supply (with wiring mods to make it work). It has Ubuntu 16.04 installed on it, because I was using the computer in my guest room, and guests should have a modern browser.
The case is in good to excellent cosmetic condition. I'll wipe my account off the machine and give you the root password, and then you can either use it as is, or install MacOS 9 on it (or whatever).
It has a 40GB disk and 640MB of RAM.
Here are the detailed specs about OS and CPU:
VERSION="16.04.6 LTS (Xenial Xerus)"
bogomips : 49.81 clock : 500.000000MHz cpu : 7400, altivec supported detected as : 65 (PowerMac G4 AGP Graphics) L2 cache : 1024K unified machine : PowerMac3,3 Memory : 640 MB motherboard : PowerMac3,3 MacRISC Power Macintosh platform : PowerMac pmac flags : 00000014 pmac-generation : NewWorld processor : 0 processor : 1 revision : 2.9 (pvr 000c 0209) total bogomips : 99.63
I don't particularly want to ship this as it's big and heavy. I live in the middle of NJ. I can deliver it to the Museum for a tech day, or meet you somewhere in Monmouth or Ocean county to effect the transfer.
