What are the full specs on the iBook and do you know what's wrong with it, and do you have any pictures?

Also, you might want to provide some feedback (on eBay or PayPal, etc) because this IS your first post.

Alright, now that I've got that established, you didn't answer my 2nd question - has this iBook been diagnosed by an Apple Genius and if so - what did they say was wrong, if not do you know or have any idea what could be wrong, I need to know before I can buy this to see if it's fixable.

I have taken it to the Genius bar and they didn't say what is wrong. My guess is a logic board or something like that.

That's the only thing from stopping me - I want to know exactly what's wrong, is there any chance you can take it back and ask again, does this have any left over Applecare, and can I check the serial number (you can PM me if you don't wanna post it in public)...?

you've had it since 2003 and you don't know the processor speed?

so you went to turn it on one day and it wouldn't turn on at all?

interesting.

I told him just to liftup the keyboard, the specs should be on a sticker on the upper left side.
