Well, that depends on if it boots, what condition it's in, and what else in that thing when it arrives.  It looks like it was a bit of a crapshoot, but it could be a find of the century if it turns out to be in good condition and have an 060 or Video Toaster, or who knows what else...  The guy latched onto the word "Toaster" from somewhere.....

He also did a fairly obvious job of omitting the card slots in the photo.  I love it when ebayers act stupid and ignorant so they can avoid being honest.

This guy knew to look at the model of the drive (ie: he had the machine open) but didn't think to look at the cards in the slots....uh huh...right.....

I just had a feeling that If I didn't buy it I'd always wonder "What If"  I'll let you all know it's condition when it arrives...

Way to go! :-)

We'll see in a matter of few weeks if I successfully pulled a similar stunt. A working CSPPC 060/200Mhz board for 100EUR that "should" work. The owner tested it in his Micronik 1200 Z3 busboard and it didn't report any memory installed, so he is getting rid of it for 100EUR with this warning. It seems like it is the fault of the A1200 busboard, so it is likely to work fine in an actual A4000, which I'll find out soon. :-)

That case looks like the VT setup they had at Florida State University a few years ago (behind a door with a print-out of Eric Schwartz's "Survivor" taped to it.) It had a Flyer in it. Does yours?
