ImageWriter LQ, Edmore, Michigan
- My mother, a retired teacher, has an Imagewriter LQ in very good
condition, along with extra ribbons, that she would like to donate to a
school in the area which could use it. This is that huge, wide carriage
model that weighs a ton, but does do good basic printing. Since it is
so heavy, she is reluctant to try to ship it anywhere (just try finding
a box big enough!) but either she or I could deliver it to a school in
the area. She lives outside of Edmore (about 25 miles east of Howard
City) & I live in Grand Rapids, so if you hear of any school
anywhere in between that could use it, just give me a holler.
Thanks Much!

Classic II, SE with dead hard drive
- I have one fully functional Classic II for donation to school in Michigan, Ohio,
- or Indiana. Also an SE with an inoperable hard drive.

Two Mac IIci systems in Germantown, Maryland
- Hi I have two old Macs to donate:
1. Mac IIci with 20 MB RAM, ethernet card, and 21" monochrome monitor, 14.4 modem, SyQuest drive, two external hard drives, ImageWriter II printer, LaserWriter IIf printer
2. Mac IIci with swivel RasterOps page size monochrome monitor, 20 MB RAM, ethernet card, 28.8 modem, external floppy drive, and assorted cabling
Please let me know if you're interested in these Macs. They're workhorses and still work great. They need a good home since I got my iMac.
Thanks,
Patti Henningsen
Classic, Apple IIe stash in Ohio
- I am working on building a computer lab at school and have many old Apples left from days gone by: five Classics, maybe a dozen Apple IIes. Many monitors and keyboards. Some memory SIMMs and the ethernet card and wires and boxes that look like networking things. A few modems too. I would like someone to have them if they are of any value to anyone. We are in Ohio.
