Hello again, I'm the guy with the 270c and with the information I've gathered and confirmed from this list I don't think I want to pursue getting a dock and all the other things that might be needed to get it up and going again. So, I'm offering it to anyone who might want it on this list before I put it up on eBay. I can guarantee that the 270c worked fine before system 8.1 was installed on it. Unknown battery condition but it does have the AC. It's in excellent condition inside and out and the screen has no dead spots nor any sticky keys. I can send pictures to anyone interested off list. $25.00 (or make offer) + shipping to anywhere in the U.S. Chad fabrizio venerandi wrote: > > Domenica, 25 gen 2004, alle 21:11 Europe/Rome, Chad Pastotnik ha scritto: > >> I'm new to this list but have been plinking away at macs now for 10 >> years and I'm really glad to have found a resource such as this list. >> > > I fear you need a friend who can give you a dock or microdock to install > the system.
