I am looking to switch from Windows to the wonderful world of Mac
Therefore, I am looking to start out with a Powerbook (at least a 15" screen).
I am also looking to purchase the item within the Chicagoland area. I would like to pick it up and save some money but more importantly save the unit from shipping. If you have such a unit and you are looking for a good home please email me with details at (paypalmember@comcast.net).
Disregard the previous G4 post.

It's a 15 inch powerbook
1.67 gbz processor
512 ram
80gb HDD
DVD-Rom/cd-rw combo drive

It's only about a month old, and unopened in the box. I got it from my dads work, because they ordered too many and sold them very cheap to employees. However, I already have a mini and an HP laptop, so there's no use really for another computer right now. PM me with any more question or if you interested in picking it up. We can work out details and such then.

-=EDIT=-
Forgot to mention, that it also does have Tiger on it.

How much do you want to pay for a 17" 1ghz PowerBook, 1gb Ram, Superdrive?

1 dead pixel.
Minor mark on screen.
some wear on the palm wrest area, and the powersupply area on the case is bent slightly, but it works perfectly, and has about 9 months left on a 3 year AppleCare.

I'm considering selling for the right price.

Oh, and I'm in the burbs of Chitown.
