WHOA!  Are my eyes deceiving me?  YIKES!  A 68k Macintosh for almost
$1,000?  $1200 gets you a 603e PowerMac with 16MBs memory and 1.2GB HD!
Let's be realistic here, System 8 is not even going to run on a 68k
machine, System 7.6 is the last version of the system to support 68k. 
Not to mention that the IIfx is the hardest to upgrade Mac because it
uses so many exotic parts, such as 68pin SIMMs.  You need to drop that
price if you are planning to sell it...
