LC 475

This is the best of the LC series imho. Great if you’ve got an Apple IIe card, or if you want to just have that good 'ol mac experience (although I dont think it will run System 6, unlike the first LC). You can also run NetBSD on it if your really keen (doesnt sit right with me tho).

$1 reserve - cant go wrong! (no its not mine) :)

Actually, I'm not even sure why I bought it. Just reminds me of my stage-1 compsci papers back in the early 90's I guess.

Might have a play with a mk68k linux.

lol - now thats what its all about! ;-)

Lets see, you could get an ethernet card for it (if it didnt come with one) and run a webserver or better still, a BBS! ;-) You could even do this with traditional MacOS!
