I believe this was handled with the white iBooks ;)

But yeah I have some LC2's and Amiga 500's in perfect working condition here
too, the Amigas I use regularly as the games are often more fun than the
modern ones, go Xenon 2!!
Have a Laserjet 5MP and Asante LT->Ethernet bridge here too, both working
fine (for sale too).

The end of SCSI drives was the demise of reliability for the macs I reckon.
