What should I offer for this G4 tower? SP 500 w/ 1.2 GHZ upgrade, 768 RAM, 80GB hard drive, OS 10.3 - Dennis S - 05-16-2007

I can pick it up. It's originally an SP 500, with a 1.2 GHZ upgrade, 768 RAM, new Apple 80GB hard drive, OS 10.3 and a DVD ROM.

I can't buy anything right now that costs much and can't find any deals on Minis. I have a G3 400 DV SE with OS 10.2.8 and need at least 10.3 and a G4 pretty quick.

I would offer $150. I would pay up to about $250.

200, maybe more depending on video card and if it has airport or not.

$200 would be a pretty nice deal IMO.

the G4 upgrade card is worth ~$150 on its own.

I am in the 200-250 if it has airport card
the upgrade card is worth a bit, but if you part it out you'll get nothing for the G4

$200 is fair.

Is this a 1-owner machine? Clean? Apple KB & Mouse? I'd be careful, and not offer more than $200 maximum. You can buy a Digital Audio on eBay, the most reliable chassis there is, for $250 or less:

I just prefer the DA machines over everything else...they just have less problems.
