That's free as in beer. . .
I, being of sound mind and body, am giving away a Macintosh Performa
6214 computer to the first person who claims it. This is a circa-1995
Mac with all the trimmings. I am giving away the whole system as a
single package, all or nothing.
The system includes:
a PowerPC 603 processor running at 75 MHz
24 MB of memory (including the original 8 MB and a 16 MB card I
installed)
an internal IDE hard disk whose size I no longer remember, but
big enough
an internal CD-ROM player
a 14in Apple monitor
a SupraExpress 33.6 external modem
Last time I tried it, which was last spring sometime, the system still
worked fine. It is running Mac OS 8.something or other. It doesn't
have much software.
Last spring I unsuccessfully tried to install mtlinux on it with the
help of Tyler Schmidt and other recognized Mac/Linux experts. I have no
idea whether it will ever be possible to get this machine to run Linux.
If you are interested, contact me. I will let the successful claimant
know how to pick the machine up and email a followup letting the list
know that the machine has been claimed.
