bofors Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 While my Cube runs Tiger (and Leopard) just fine, now that I have just built another hackintosh, I no longer have a need for it. Furthermore, this is somewhat of a "collector's item" and frankly I am not a collector. Price negotiable. G4 Cube in excellent condition (actual pictures availible): - 800MHz Sonnet Encore / SST with 2MB L3 cache (and quiet cooling fan): http://www.sonnettech.com/product/encore_stg4.html - 128 MB RAM. - 20 GB hard drive. - Apple USB speakers (by Harman/Kardon). - Apple mouse. Options: - 1.5 GB PC-133 RAM (maximum RAM for Cube). - 120 GB Maxtor DiamandMax 9 Plus hard drive with 8MB cache (largest internal hard drive for Cube). - Harman/Kardon USB "SoundSticks" with sub-woofer (designed for the Cube which has no audio jack). - Apple keyboard.

DiaboliK Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 how much you want for it bofors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Well like I said, the price is negotiable and depends on the options. Otherwise, I have not actually looked at eBay to get an idea of market value. If you are seriously interested, send me a PM and we will work something out.

pedro_sandchez Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 how much for just the cube and none of the extras? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted November 30, 2006 Author Share Posted November 30, 2006 The processor upgrade makes a difference in my mind here, I originally paid about $250 for that. I think this base system is worth about $350: G4 Cube in excellent condition (actual pictures available): - 800MHz Sonnet Encore / SST with 2 MB DDR L3 cache (and quiet cooling fan): http://www.sonnettech.com/product/encore_stg4.html - 128 MB RAM. - 20 GB hard drive. - Apple USB speakers (by Harman/Kardon). - Apple mouse. - Apple keyboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mspr Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hi, bofors... where are you from ? How much for the HK speakers ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 I am in the Detroit area. I see that new H/K SoundSticks II are going for $115, but those use a normal speaker jack. But I have the original USB SoundSticks, so they work on a Hackintosh (or Cube which has no audio jack) without an audio driver. This means to me that they are a little better than what you can buy new for some things I do. I am thinking they are worth about $75. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 I had been running this Cube with the full 1.5 GB of RAM, but I had extra 128 MB and 256 MB DIMMs that I thought I would offer with the bare Cube. However, upon testing it appears the 256 MB DIMM is bad, so base configuration is now only 128 MB. I still have three 512 MB DIMMs for sale, so more RAM is certainly available here.
