I have been thinking about listing my Cube for sale on eBay and buying a 677 Powerbook. I have looked but never see 500 mhz ones there. Here's the specs; can anyone suggest a fair price?

500 mhz Cube
15" LCD matching screen
Harmon Kardon Soundsticks with iSub
Keyboard and optical mouse
1 Gig RAM
Radeon Graphics Card w 32 meg RAM
DVD

Is the 500mhz with a Radeon card so rare that there are just none out there or are people keeping them for any special reason? I love my Cube, but I don't want to be chained to my desk when I want to work somewhere else.

Just get a used or new DUSB iBook. I think you'd miss your Cube.

Yes, it is rare. Yes, people are hanging on to them - especially gamers. The 32MB OEM Radeon matters more for 3D acceleration than 500Mhz vs 450MHz. It sounds like you want a notebook computer though. I also have a 500Mhz Radeon Cube w/ 1gig of RAM. I wouldn't mind having an iBook in addition to my Cube. But there aren't any notebooks (PC or Mac) that could replace my Cube IMHO (for now anyway). Good luck whatever you decide.........joe

I think it's worth $5. I'll even pay for shipping. Deal?
