I have an SE with 20Meg Apple hard disk and 2.5 Meg Memory. Anyone have any suggestions as to how much I should ask for it. I've got my IIci on order!! Jim Meiss jdm@boulder.colorado.edu

Figure from a Mac Classic when trying to analyze a Mac 512Ke, a Plus or an SE... Figure from either an LC or an Si when figuring an SE/30 or any Mac II... Since a Classic lists for $995 bare bones (1m, no hard disk) and $1495 for 2mb, 20mb internal hard disk) That is your absolute high end comparison. The only functional advantage of the SE over the Classic is the slot... However, even that may not be a big advantage since there are suggestions that some kind of Snap-on slot will be available from third parties... The Classic has added advantages: 512K Roms, Superdrive (unless you have an SE that had a Superdrive on it, later models did)... My gut hunch, assuming good condition on your machine, is that you should hope to get $750... Much more and you probably have a novice buyer, much less and you are getting screwed (besides which, if you got less, you might be better off keeping the machine around as a backup or a doorstop...
