Unless you're running OS4, I'd vote for selling it.

I just sold one with no regrets!

I'm thinking of selling my BlizzPPC 240mhz (25mhz 040) with a Bvision gfx board. I was keeping it for sentimental reasons... But really I need the money more than the memories :(

While I would never sell my own Blizzard060/PPC 240/60Mhz 256MB RAM, if you really need to and you sell it on eBay in the UK just now you should get I reckon around £500 for it... :)

The prices for plain Blizzard060 boards on eBay has been steadily increasing in recent months and the average price now for them is £340 where as just 2 years ago you would have only got around £210 max for one.

BPPC are very rare on eBAY (I paid nearly £400 for mine several years ago) but as I say from the prices folk are willing to pay just for an 060 card then £500 should be the least you can expect... :)

This Blizzard060 sold for £321.54 yesterday

Blizzard060 50Mhz 32MB RAM Sold £321.54

Just over 2 weeks ago this one went for £369.94

Blizzard060 50Mhz 32MB RAM Sold £369.94

I know I wouldn't drop out of the sale until about £550 on eBay if I was still looking for one myself & there seems to be plenty more numpties like me out there who would be willing to pay this kind of money for one... :)

Not sure, I don't need the money at the moment, and I have a lot of sentimental reason to keep it (my first C apps were written on it)...

I am open to offers. :( sad to see it go though... I think it has a 32Meg SIMM installed.
