And i'm normally a Royal Dirt Devil guy, but these Oxygen uprights are made in Britain apparently, as it's the same machine as a Whirlwind Power System and Airstream upright, and the Whirlwind PS version says made in Britain on its model sticker. They have hepa sealed exhaust filters, and I haven't tried it yet, but given the machine is the style with rear body mounted wheels and a floating head, it'll probably work with some sort of type U hepa media bags

This example was a display model at a vacuum shop I used to go to. It's only been used for store demos prior to ending up with me. No bagless cartridges were sold with these unlike the Whirlwind PS. These were also later sold as the Electrolux Aptitude I believe in the mid 2000s, which was a bit more popular in the US. These are really well thought out machines, for example, the switch on the handle is a potentiometer, not just a 3 phase like a Singer would have. On the lowest setting, it's the quietest vacuum i've ever used, and I've used LOTS of vacuums (many Mieles, Lindhaus, Sebo you name it). It's also very ergonomic for an upright! Attached after the original sale tag pic is photos of the Whirlwind Power system they had which said Britain on the sticker

This one's brand new... well at least it was

Hey everyone, I've always been interested in the Frog Design 2000s era of apple products, but was born in 2006 so never got to see the colorful era in its prime. Recently I've been learning more about the company's history around the late 90s (my favorite era of stuff to collect) and early 2000s and have been keeping an eye out for local deals on dream machines of mine.

This Power Mac G4 Cube got listed on marketplace about a week ago with the very early Graphite lcd monitor as a working set for $200. Yes I know it needs the pro mouse and pro keyboard, but it was the perfect combination of coolest looking monitor, and coolest version of the G4 (obviously my personal opinion) so I immediately messaged the seller and drove an hour to buy it at 11 pm.

I have ended up with a heavily modified G4 cube that seems to have some more modern late 2000s motherboard modified in there, which is running a Japanese install of Windows 10 OS. The seller didn't know english too well but mentioned it came from a PC repair store in either China or Japan (machine had both language packs downloaded). It seems like someone really cared for it at some point, the Harmon Kardon speakers were rewired to work with the updated motherboard.

The set is already worth its weight from its looks imo, but as it sits, is the machine worth anything? Mostly talking about the desktop as the monitor is untouched and all original. Did I scam myself and pay way too much?

What should I do with it? Turn it into something more useful with a modern processor? Find an original complete inner core and find a cpu upgrade card for it? Right now it's the stereo for my garage.

Hey again, just presenting another opportunity for collectors (or interested non-collectors!) to get a time capsule machine at a good price. This unit was a family member's, given as a house warming gift, it was never assembled or even opened. The box says 2010 on it. These were also sold under the Bissell Healthy Home Vacuum model name. This machine would've been one of, if not the nicest Bissell vacuum cleaner you could buy at the time! Here's the link! Good luck bidding!
