Comment: I bought a Power Macintosh 7100/80 the other day on a thrift store...my questions are: 1. Is it 68k or PPC??
2. Do they sell those adapters to use PC monitors on Macs on an Apple store??
3. Would they sell a keyboard or a mouse for this machine on an Apple store??
4. Would it be cheap?? about how much??
5. Can I install an iMac software restore CD with SSW 8.6 on it?? Much thanx!! ;) El-Trucha

Reply: (edit)1. PPC 2. Not on the Apple store online or at a real Apple store,
but probably at authorized resellers such as Jigsaw or
Computer Warehouse. 3. No. The 7100/80 uses ADB (Apple desktop bus) and
SCSI ports, not USB. For an ADB mouse and keyboard you
can search on eBay (www.ebay.com) 4. you should be able to get a keyboard and mouse from
eBay for about $10. or even less if you're lucky! 5. Yes, The 7100/80 can run up to Mac OS 9.1. , So Mac
OS 8.6 will run fine on it. good luck. if you have any more questions then get back
to me here or via email. Joshua Coventry

Reply: (edit)2. Credit card only for those, sorry. But you can order via
mail if you manage to get their brochures. I'm sure you
can request for a brochure online. 3/4. Yep, both of those. good luck. Joshua Coventry

Reply: (edit)you only have to put in your credit card # if you are
registering to sell on eBay, but to buy you don't. 2. brochure = leaflet, flyer, magazine, etc.
You should be able to ring up or fill in a form to order
things. Not always though. Basically everything is sold at eBay from computers,
monitors, wires, software, ANYTHING, literally. Joshua Coventry
