The Fujitsu:

I have a Fujitsu Lifebook multimedia laptop.

It has great speakers, a DVD player/CD burner, and a Pentium 3 at 850MHz. It has a small screen on the front edge that gives you information about things like battery charge and volume. It has media buttons on the front, as well, and a kill switch. I don't know why, it just does.

The ports- Wow. It has 4 USB ports, for hooking up flash drives, cameras, printers, and iPods, all at the same time! Half the laptops you can buy brand new only have three! It has an S-Video port for connecting to your TV for use as a monitor, and it has FireWire for incredibly fast transfers to/from your external hard drive or video camera. It has Ethernet, a modem, VGA out, and a serial port. It also has a floppy drive.

It has a 14" screen with 1024x768 resolution, just fine for viewing movies or surfing the web. It has 128MB of RAM, more than enough for running the included Windows ME operating system. Of course, it also has a 20GB hard drive.

I have installed a wireless card on it, so you can go online at Starbucks or just surf from your couch.

It comes with the power adapter and the battery holds a small charge.


The G4:
Here it is hooked up to two monitors, not even breaking a sweat. This is because of the ATI video card I installed.


It is actually a Power Mac G3, but with the clear handles of a G4 and a CPU upgrade running at 500MHz, roughly equivalent to a Pentium 4. It has 512MB RAM and a 40GB Western Digital 7200RPM hard drive, for fast boot times. The video card in it is an ATI Radeon 7000 Mac edition, which retails for $125 here:

It also has a SCSI card, and a DVD drive. It's running OS 10.3.9 Panther with all updates, iLife, and Microsoft Office.

The Dell Latitude C600:

This is really a gem of a notebook. Here it is booting into the BIOS:


It has an 850MHz Pentium III processor. Yes, this is the same model of laptop you've seen for $250 on Craigslist. It is better than most of them, because it has a battery that will give you approximately three hours of life. It has 128MB RAM, expandable to 1GB. There is no hard drive, but pop one in and you're ready to go! This is a small laptop. It doesn't have a CD drive, but you can buy one for around $20. There are lots of multimedia ports.

Next we have the eMachines.



It’s basically the case, CD drive, power supply, and motherboard. Nothing much to say here. About 3 years old.

Next is the 1st generation iPod.
Front:

Back: (notice the mirrorlike back, no scratches at all)

So, what I have here is essentially an original Apple iPod. It's the first one ever, made in 2001. It has no scratches whatsoever, because it's never been taken out of the case except to take pictures of it, and has a brand new battery, which costs approximately $75. I'm selling it because I don't really use it or pay it any attention anymore. Needless to say, this iPod is a collector's item, and will most certainly rise in value. As the pictures show you, it's immaculate. No scratches, scuffs, dings, nothing. It comes with a sync cable, a wall charger, and a pair of nice Phillips headphones.

Next is the Macintosh 128k.



There it is. This was the first widely available computer that used a keyboard and a mouse. Before this was introduced in 1984, computers were just text on a screen. The Macintosh introduced desktop icons and the mouse on the screen. Windows would not exist if Microsoft had not used a lot of the Macintosh’s operating system.

History lesson aside, this is a large chunk of Apple history and is extremely rare. It turns on, but can’t load the operating system.

And, a PS/2 keyboard and mouse. They are Gateway brand and work fine. The mouse has a scroll wheel and the keyboard has multimedia and application buttons. Both look like new.
