[Blindapple] Free plus shipping: Apple 2GS Rom 01 not fully operational

[nickwilcox_2000 at msn.com]

I have a rom 1 iigs that I have been told has a new battery. What I want to do is put the so called new battery in the rom 3. I think I found the battery in the rom 3 to the left of slot 1 and the power cable but I can not find it on the rom 1.

> I have a ROM 01 Apple 2GS computer to give away. It does not work

> to cannibalize for parts you may need, or if you have your own disk 
> controller, and do not use the internal one.
> I'm giving the computer away free. If you want it, you would pay 
> shipping charges from Louisville, KY, 40206. Only US addresses please. If 
> you want, I will remove the power supply in order to possibly reduce 
> shipping cost. What you get is the main computer unit, nothing else. Please 
> Email me off-list if interested.
