[vcf-midatlantic] Available soon (semi-OT): vintage Macs and possibly some Cobalt Qubes

[David Riley]

Hi all,

My uncle in California is clearing out his earthly effects to move to KY and there are a number of older Macs that should be saved which I don't have the space for.  He'd like to see them go to a good home, since he has fond memories of working with all of them.

I don't have an exact tally yet (my father is there trying to pack everything up), but I know there are at least some LCIII and LC475 machines, a pair of IIcx machines and one or two Cobalt Qubes (I believe the MIPS ones, not the lame later Intel ones).  There may even be an SE/30 or two in there, but those are problematic to ship... unsure how that'll go.

Before my dad spends loads of money on shipping things back to the East coast, I'd like to gauge whether there's interest in rehoming these machines.  The LCIII and 475 were (IMO) the ultimate expressions of the pizza-box LC Mac, and the Cobalt machines are pretty neat in their own right.  They're free to good homes; I can deliver at Festivus, or any time near Philly (the likelihood of my making any of the workshops before Festivus is sadly low).

Feel free to respond privately or publicly, doesn't matter to me.  I'll have a better list later.


- Dave
