Hello All,

 

I have a great condition Powermac G3, It has just been reformatted fresh and loaded with the

following software : ( loaded but cds not included ) Will come with 10.3 disks.

 

For 350MHZ this thing runs great, Similar to my Pentium III 900MHZ

Software Installed:

 

OSX 10.3.9 ( fully updated )

Microsoft Office 2004

Adobe Photoshop CS

 

Specs:

 

350MHZ PowerPC G3 ( 2.2 - Bootrom 1.1F4 )

512MB Ram ( 128x4 ) ( can handle 1GB )

80GB Maxtor HD

Zip Drive ( not tested I have no disks appears in OS ok )

Rage 128 PCI 16MB Video

CD / DVD Rom

Adaptec AHA-2930CU SCSI Card

10/100 Ethernet

Firewire 400 ( x2 )

USB ( x2 )

 

Overall the computer is in great shape, Almost not scratches at all just the normal wear

and tear for an 8 year old computer. It is however just missing the trim ring from the Zip drive.

 

This computer boots pretty fast and runs great for Web Surfing , Email, Photoshop , MS Office etc.

 

Video card will do 1280x1024 32bit no problem, Maybe other resolutions as well but Ive only used it with my Dell 17' LCD

 

Asking $100 Shipped ( costs about $25 to ship )

 

If you have any questions please feel free to ask. ( actual pics available on request as well )

 

Thanks,

Hello,

 

I live in New Jersey USA, It may cost a tad more to ship to Canada but I wouldn't think more than $15 more US Currency.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions and also if you would like the Additional 40GB drive installed.

 

Thanks,

Daryl G
