Only major items for me to still sort through are the boxed 1400s. I measured the boxes and weighed them--to my surprise they are within the fedex and ups maximums for regular ground shipping. So i wont have to insist on local pickup or bother with freight shippers. Probably next weekend i'll have them up on ebay.

Had a bit of free time, just listed the mint 1400 with an sgi box and full software package still sealed in plastic. free 48 state shipping. Half way through evaluating the last one, its a 1420 that was a trade show/demo model, has sgi box and will also be up on ebay in next 2 days.

This is a sgi 420c monitor. its a 20 inch CRT. Backside has 5 bnc type connectors, plus a vga type connector thats labeled hd15. I tested it with a modern windows pc with a normal vga output and it works properly. Has a sgi box and styrofoam,

One of the 550 units has a sticker on back indicating its a prototype unit for 'trio 32' not for resale. i looked inside and it has a motherboard, but no cpu, ram, or hdd
@sksaudio, do you have any idea what this "trio 32" is that the unit is meant to be a prototype for? The only "Trio 32" I can find by searching online was made by S3, SGI's competitor.

No idea. There wasnt any additional paperwork for it. I do remember that the motherboard was the same as the mb in the regular 550

Could you post a picture of the CD and Floppy you received with the 1400? I’m look for a set for mine and it would be nice to have a clear picture as a reference, Thank You.
