Yeah, I was looking for that seal the other day... I did not see it. It may be in my outside workshop, maybe this weekend
But you still have to complete the sliding window deal ;)

Thanks for the offer of the PC deal, though. :wub:

Tell you what Moni, when I get that powerbook, I'll get it running well and you can have it, I might even be able to set you up with a printer, and its yours!!

The reason for my request for old macs, is so I can get them running and give them to kids/families who cannot afford. I set them primarly up for typing documents and practicing keyboarding (not internet use)

According to 'Danny ole boy', its pretty old (but then again he's pretty young...) :lol:
