I bought this just over a year ago for a project, which is now completed, and I added a number of upgrades for that project. It did take a knock on the upper handle in being shipped to me, but the case closes properly and it does not affect performance.

Specs:
PowerMac7,3
Processor: 2X1.8 GHz
Memory: 4GB
GeForce FX 5200

My upgrades:
Sonnet SATA 4-port PCI card
G5 Jive (allows 3 extra hard drives)
3 1TB WD Green drives
1 1.5TB WD Green drive
1 1.5TB Seagate 7200RPM drive (boot drive)
Firewire PCI card 2X800, 1X400
USB PCI card 4XUSB2

It does not have bluetooth or wireless, though I have used USB adapters for both (not included) and they work well.

I'm a little unsure how to price this, because the upgrades did cost a lot. The hard drives alone are worth a bundle nowadays, and the SATA/Jive combination cost $300 from OWC.



Price Cut: $550, but if it doesn't sell at this price, I'll strip it back to the basic configuration and sell the parts separately

I live in Cobourg, Ontario (an hour east of Toronto), and would be willing to drive part way to meet a buyer. I'm not interested in shipping. :)

Sold the computer itself on Kijiji. I will be looking to sell the G5 Jive, the Sata card, and the hard drives separately here (at first), and then on eBay (if there are no takers here).

Do you still have the PCI SATA card?
