Hi,

I have a bare MacIIx for sale.  It comes with only the case, power supply,
CPU, power cord, mounting bracket, and internal SCSI cable.  That is, it
doesn't come with a floppy drive, hard drive, memory, or video card.

However, this MacIIx is not in a perfect condition.  It has an occional
startup problem.  Occionally, it doesn't start up right away.  With a
correct startup, the Mac should produce a startup sound.  But my computer
sometimes does not have the sound when I try to turn it on.  Without the
sound, the screen will not appear.  And nothing will happen.

After I give it a good shake to the computer, it will usually start up
fine with the startup sound.  And once it starts up fine, it will stay
fine.  But very so often, the problem will happen again.

I used MacTest Pro from Apple.  It passed all the tests: logic board test,
MacIIx component test, PRAM test, etc.  And the culprit is not the
batteries, because I just replace them with the new ones.

It may be good for the FDHD upgrade or part replacement, if you are
knowledgeable about the Mac.

So give me your best offer.
