Between $350 and $450 recently on eBay, although I've seen a few go for as
little as $300.

Well, HIGH $600 maybe. But they appear to be running right around $800 for the
PII 266 unit. Faster processors are more. These prices will almost certainly go
up as Xmas approaches.

Quality is timeless! ;-)

Nothing from the 760 is compatible with the 600 except possibly the HD IF it's a
slim (12.5MM) drive, and even then you need a new carrier, not a caddy.
W2K is my preferred OS since Beta2! Runs 24/7 on my 600s and I've NEVER seen a
BSOD on them.
