If ya live in a computer-rich area, it won't be hard to find one cheaper than shipping. Hell, if you're lucky, ya might even get one the same way I got mine, at the 'Curb Store' (trash).
My son just called from Nebraska to brag-up the deal he just got at a local school's 'garage sale'. Picked up five PPC 5400/200s for a buck apiece.

Just to further muddy an already muddied thread :^)
I have a Power Mac 7100/66 AV. Mac used a bastard
monitor connecter, but also had an AV card with a regular Mac 15-pin connector. I used a multisync monitor with it for some time but then found a Mac AV monitor in great shape curbside. Couldn't believe my luck. Had to be collector synchronicity happening there.

At the computer club, we had a 6100/66 with the odd monitor connector, but fortunately it came with an adapter to more traditional 15-pin Mac. That machine also had a "custom" Ethernet interface which required some special transceiver (which we also had one of - lucky us). From what I read, Apple pretty soon went back to the old standards with the following machines.

He said all five fired right up. Unfortunately, he's going to have to abandon them when he leaves Nebraska tomorrow (can't bring 'em on a Greyhound).
At least he's found good homes for three of 'em, he gave them to some computerless kids.

perhaps he should sell the other 2 for $5 a piece, get a 500% profit! :lol:

I saw a Performa 5200 in a thrift shop I had never visited before. They asked 125 SEK ($17) for complete system. I was not impressed, but I picked up a four-way parallel port switch for 25 SEK ($3). Hopefully it works, and it suitable to use with my laser printer - somewhere else I read that a mechanical switch is not recommended with parellel port laser printers.
