Not to rattle your cage or anything, but I do belive "mint" means, "New in the box, never opened, never used, direct from the manufacturer." Like in coins from the mint. At best these old computer items are "like new in excellent condition".

I have dealt with comic book collections and collectors that insist the items they were offering were in "mint" condition. After it leaves the manufacturing location, packaged, shipped and stocked and shuffled around on the self, the item has been handled numerous times.

No offense, just my two cents worth.  ...and no, they aren't in mint condition either.  :-D

It's pushing it alright but the item is in good condition from what I could tell from the picture. You should realy slapp a 32Mb simm on it and lower it by 10-15 or so I think.

Yeah. Plus this isn't the DCE version. I sold mine (DCE 2000) for £35.
