Yea you could get some money out of that.

But for me I would keep it, I love old computers.

Make sure it boots into the OS, most of these had HDD issues.

And look at the back, what does it say. The 1MB RAM version is most popular.

This version was released in 1984, so a very nice collectible, GET IT NOW!

And dat plastic is still white, this could go for crap tons! Most have yellowed plastic!

 

Look at this beat-up one for $700

You might need this too.

it has a retro apple logo on it, some hipster would buy that from you on ebay for way to much just because it is retro apple.

sorry here it is. It comes with the mouse, keyboard, and floppy reader

 

Buy it, but what is the model number on the back and any other info. Some models will have the entire Macintosh division signatures on the inside of the case.

I just took a quick look on eBay and they go for a good price especially if it's in working condition

You'll be amazed how many links are on the pirate bay for W98.

That's not the point though. It's cool to own an original disk :)

I know. But seeing them all on pirate be makes me remember using that OS in primary school. Downloaded one and used it for a while.

Yep, brand new, never opened. Each box has two sticks, each stick is 16mb, so thats a whopping 64mb of ram.

 

Yeah, I lost my camera so I used my Nexus 7. I don't know why but it seems that the nexus 7 camera is just getting worse over time 0.o

Old shit no one cares about but me.

I also recently got a new Socket 7 motherboard. This is the first S7 ATX board that I've ever had. It even has AGP. I'm definitely building something with this.

Also it came with an AMD k6-III 450mhz.

I dunno why, but it feels like the socket is trying to escape the board.
