Rare Classic - Flower Power G3 iMac

2012-01-23T06:50:00.000-08:00

A classic Apple G3 iMac in the unique Flower Power case design. This iMac has the original 500 MHz processor and a noisy 20 GB hard drive that can be replaced with one running from 9.2 to 10.4 - your choice. The ram has been increased to 320 MB with more available. It has the factory installed CD/RW optical drive but a DVD drive is an optional upgrade. It comes with just a power cord for the collector, but optional extras include your choice of a black or white Apple Pro extended keyboard and matching optical mouse or a later white Apple keyboard and mouse as shown or any of the earlier FlavorMac colored keyboards.

This computer is not mint, it has some light scuffs on the top and a small scratch on the glass screen. If that is a problem, the case could be removed and put on a Snow 500 chassis on request. This increasingly rare iMac is priced at $145. A Blueberry G3 iMac box with factory molded styrofoam packing is also available if needed for shipping. Local pick-up is recommended but insured shipping is an option.

The vintage Apple Rip. Mix. Burn. poster, shown in the photo, that caused the music industry to howl in protest is also available - click the label below. To inquire contact Dave via kootenaymac.tel

2012-01-16T07:21:00.000-08:00

For sale: an Apple G4 PowerMac 1.25 GHz MDD computer. This is the last of the G4 PowerPC series and was a re-release due to demand to boot to OS 9 as well as 10. The Mirrored Drive Door series is styled with the chrome and portholes reminiscent of a Buick Roadmaster from the 50's. The hard drive is an 80GB running OS X Leopard 10.5.8 with room for adding up to 3 more drives. There is a 1.25 GB of memory installed and that can be expanded to 2 GB. The optical drive is a DVD/CD-RW "combo drive"; with a second bay available for an additional drive.

It supports dual displays, boots quickly, runs great and is very fast. Be aware that MDD's are loud machines - nicknamed the "Wind Tunnel" - due to the number of fans used to keep it running cool.

This tower is priced at $250 with a power cord, black Apple Pro keyboard and optical mouse as shown (or $30 less if the keyboard and mouse are not needed). A brand new factory sealed white Apple keyboard is an available option. There are several Apple acrylic ADC LCD monitors available as additional options if wanted: a 15", a 17" (shown) or a 20".

Mac OSX Server 10.3 unlimited client boxed software

2012-01-07T09:33:00.000-08:00

Opened box with seemingly unused original Apple OSX Server 10.3 system software with unlimited client license. This is a boxed 4-disk CD set with manuals, 2 disk install set, Admin tools, X-Code CD and 2 white Apple decals. It includes the license code for unlimited client use.

This disk set can be installed on any Mac with a G3, G4 or G5 processor (excluding some upgrade cards), at least 128MB of physical RAM and built in USB. Also on hand is an opened box and possibly unused disks 10.3 Family pack 5 users and an open box 10.3.2 Retail version. All are complete boxes, including stickers. To inquire about prices, click the Read more or contact Dave via kootenaymac.tel

Apple Mac OSX Server v. 10.3.4 adds simple but powerful file, print, LDAP, email and web server functionality to a regular Mac. Includes full remote configuration and management. Since the processing power required for file serving is very low (the key limitation is network speed), adding OSX Server to something like an old PowerMac G4 or G5 can provide a cost effective introduction to the stability and security of a file server. Even early G4s which may seem of no value any more can make very competent file servers although please be aware that some earlier G3 and G4 PowerMacs only supported internal hard disks up to 128GB so to add high capacity internal disks would require the addition of a fast ATA PCI card.

Extremely rare pin - Keep Your Lawyers Off My Computer

2012-01-03T08:27:00.000-08:00

This is the infamous Fanged Apple, a design created in protest of Apple's lawsuit regarding graphical user interfaces (GUI) software. This 2.25" diameter button is in very good condition with all details crisp and clear. It was one of three released last year by a collector in California. It was his last one and you may never see another offered for sale. It is priced at $125. To inquire contact Dave via kootenaymac.tel

Provenance: the former owner of this pin, a speaker at several Boston MacWorlds in the early 90's, says "I personally obtained this button from Richard Stallman outside of Lotus's offices in Cambridge, MA!"

"In 1989, Apple's look and feel lawsuit against Microsoft brought the idea of interface copyright to the attention of the programming community. Apple was trying to claim a monopoly over a broad class of graphical user interfaces. If Apple succeeded, not only Microsoft, but every software developer, would be legally compelled to design gratuitously incompatible software."

In response, John Gilmore and Richard Stallman together commissioned the design of the "fanged Apple"–a button showing the Apple logo with vicious teeth. This was followed by an advertisement placed in The Tech, MIT's student newspaper, which in turn led to a protest rally at the HQ of Lotus Development Corporation--another "look and feel" lawsuit plaintiff."

Apple Computer Vintage Logo Wall Clock

2011-12-17T09:10:00.000-08:00

This analog Apple clock measures approximately 10 inches in diameter, has a white frame with clear plastic lens over the face, and the quartz movement runs on one AA battery. The clock is from GoldenOldieClocks of Post Falls Idaho and is not a genuine Apple product but would go well in any Apple collection.
