Just pulled the trigger on a 60II.

I've been killin ish on the 3k lately, hope this thing is just as dope.

Only problems: no SCSI, os 2.

Good thing: 600 shipped.

Not that fair of a price. You will def need the 3.10 OS.

[list=][/list]Exactly. Thats why I had to. I don't think it is a bad price. What do you think would have been better? 300? Ain't gunna happen. I'll post pics when it arrives.

$600 shipped isn't bad for it. SCSI is a bit overrated on these machines anyway, IMO. The 3.10OS is a must.

for me it is a must, SCSI makes it easy to transfer between Mac/PC and the 60.

It just showed up 20 minutes ago... Figured you all would care more than me yelling it to the neighbors... Perfect backlight. Clean. Underbittons seem responsive. Just wait til I actually hook it up!

Myspace.com/sidwis has one pic I just uploaded.

Qwwwwoooootttttttttttttt!!

congrats on that. i went nuts when i first got my 60. with that being said, the scsi interface is a MUST. if any of the three are overrated, (memory,scsi,3.10os) it's the memory. (not to say i could live without it lol). there's nothing like having a large enough storage capacity to be able to bring up one project after the other in a snap whenever you want to. also, i've always been skeptical about the reliability of floppies. especially ds/dd. if someone can school me on that feel free ???
