I would be interested in acquiring any of the 6xx model Macs. I am currently one of the m68k Mac kernel maintainers and I have the following Macs I use to test on (IIx, IIci, IIsi, IIfx, IIvx, Q900, Q950, LC475 and LC575). I'm interested in acquiring any models I don't already have and would be willing to pay reasonable shipping costs. I have a couple of Macintosh KVM switches, so I only need the base unit. I have 12, 14, 15 and 17 inch Mac monitors, but I would like to get a 16" for testing also. Ray Knight [EMAIL PROTECTED]
