This stuff has been in my storage unit for too long. Time to either find it a good home or send it off to recycling (sniff). I live in the Seattle area if you want to pick it up, otherwise I'd like you to pay for shipping.
Everything is in great shape cosmetically, no big scratches or dings anywhere.
The mono slab boots and works great. The monitor looks sharp.
The color slab was working fine when I put it away, but today I couldn't get the hard drive to spin up. The 17" color monitor is mostly dead, but for a few seconds I could see a picture long enough to read some of the POST messages.
The printer looks pristine. Includes trays. It was fine when it went into storage, but I don't have a cartridge in it so I can't verify that it's still working.
Includes a Soundbox, plus 2 mice and 2 keyboards, and all the cables.
I also have a full set of developer manuals and NeXTstep CDs, and original boxes for about half of the hardware. Also boxes and CDs for a few applications like AppSoft Image and Create.
I have one working 1GB Maxtor internal hard drive between these 2 systems. It's very sluggish waking up initially. I was going to shred it, but if you really want it maybe I could be convinced to remove all my old files.
Send me a message if you're interested; but don't wait too long, I want to get rid of everything before September.
sent PM for NS CD media and developer manuals.
Don't junk it before you hear from user Pentium. He lives in BC and giving hte effort he took to get a cube I find it hard to believe he would pass up "Free" :o since Seattle is driving distance from BC.
Oh man, i was in Seattle last weekend! And it's like 3 hours away from me! It would take like a day for pentium to reach Seattle, let him have a go.
To answer some questions I've received:
1) the systems are not Turbo; one is a NeXTstation Color, and one is a NeXTstation mono.
2) software: I have NeXTstep 3.0, 3.1 Developer upgrade, and 3.2 upgrade in boxes with CD media. Also NeXTstep 3.1 for Intel eval copy (unopened) and Mathematica 2.1 (unopened). Also Appsoft Image, Altsys Virtuoso, Cub'X-Window, and Daydream (including the ROM box). I have Create installed on the hard drive but can't find the media for it.
3) my preference is to try giving everything away together, then if that doesn't work I'll start breaking it up. I'm about to go on vacation for 2 weeks so I'll see what happens by then.
Oh my sweet god!!!
While I currently am away from home right now I am planning a trip to the Seattle area in September for a bunch of SGI and RS/6000 gear!
Send me a PM and we can probably work something out and I can pick it all up when I am in the area.
Hey man, drop me a pm.
I can't add you into my road trip schedule unless you PM me your address.
The new owner is going to pick up everything soon.
Thanks everyone for all your interest.
