My father was recently stripped of his company laptop, and is now in the market for another one. I suggested that he get one of the new ibooks, but he only wants to spend $500-$600 and he does not want to purchase from an individual or an auction. So basically I am wondering if there are any online stores that will sell a G3 classed powerbook/ibook (used or refurb) in his price range. For some reason in my search to find him a laptop at that price range it seems that the prices of older laptops seem to be inflated. You can get a new iBook for about $1299, and people are trying to charge like $800 for an original model ibook that has been used and has no warranty. It is just as bad in the PC industry for laptops, you can buy a new P3-800 notebook for $1000, but you try to go lower than that and you are paying $700-$800 for a used P2-300. I told him that it would probably be better to cough up about $1000 and get a new one, but he would like to see if he can find something at $500-$600.
