Title: Just got a Mac!
Post by: InsaneTrout on March 01, 2010, 04:16:23 PM
Why a Mac you say? well a few simple reasons it was free and it's one of the first macs ever built! :D yes I got a Mac Plus with (1MB) this thing is a beastly dinosaur! ha ha :D anyway I heard something rattling around inside and I figured that might not be good if it's something metal it could short circuit something and then it'd be useless and almost impossible to repair because of how old it is. well I opened it up and I looked inside the cover and found a grip load of signatures from everyone who helped mac the mac possible. does anyone think that those signatures would improve the value of this computer? it also has the SCSI port too I think and which I did some reading up online and was seeing the that ones that had that were worth even more. and yes I know mine isn't a one-off with the signatures I know about the whole signing party and stuff but come on how many other people know that there macs have all of those signatures in them? also this mac is in perfect running condition :)

HAHAHA i am sorry buy a Old computer is not like a old Game, It's not going to sell And adding that it's a OLD Mac... it's never going to sell.

If you think mac's are bad today =) The old mac's where 1,000 times worse.

well yeah I see your point but this is one of the very first macs that were ever built which in that case makes it somewhat valuable I mean I checked around and it's worth anywhere from $100-$1000 which is good for getting something for free. I mean if I wait another what 5 years? it's possible it can be worth more due to the fact that people have some and don't give a rats ass about it and either break or get rid of it depleting the number of this particular mac that's out there and that will make it worth more just because of rarity. I mean I don't like macs anymore than you do Zz but if it can make me some money who cares if it sits around in my house for a few years lol nobody said I have to use it ha ha XD I mean there are those people out their that will pay loads of money for anything.

http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_classic/stats/mac_plus.html lolz it's basically just like this but mine has the upgraded 4Mb ram but was made in 1987 I believe Uhhhh...It has keyboard and mouse, 800k floppy dive and the Dot matrix printer =P I know it was signed inside by everyone who made it but then again a lot got signed because of the signing party in 1982. Ummmm other than that stuff I don't really know a whole lot about it. well except the fact that it actually works lol.

Yo trout lemme see a snapshot of them signatures bro, that could seriously be worth some money..... I've been watching Pawn Stars on Histoy channel (that s**t is fucking addictive) anyway you could probable get like enough to buy a reasonable new computer in like 5 years.

Pawn Stars is a pretty good show! And they might take an old PC haha. If it was legit and they liked it.
