I've got an e-friend from Ontario who is coming to visit in a couple weeks. He'd like to get an iBook on the cheap so that he can play around with OS X (he's a pretty hardcore computer geek). I have some that I'm refurbishing, but the boards all have the GPU problem, and I can't guarantee him that I'll have one ready when he gets here. This stuff is a bit harder to come by cheaply in Canada, and it will save him a ton of money in taxes/VAT if he can physically bring it over the border, rather than shipping it.

So, if anyone in the US has a decent iBook they're willing to let go for a low price (since this is a side project and he's a grad student on a pretty limited income, he's hoping for $100 or less), let me know.

I've got plenty of components and casing pieces, so all I *really* need is a working motherboard and power supply. If it's a G3, an Airport card as well would be nice.

If you've got a fully functional iBook that you can let go on the cheap, though, that'd be better. Shipping would be to 47907.

I've got an iBook G4 with broken latch. 12", 1.0 GHz, 512 RAM, 80 (or 100?) GB Hard Drive, airport extreme...

I was looking for $150 shipped. Noticed you were also looking for a Wacom tablet... I've also got a Intous3 6x8 that I was looking for $170 shipped for. If you wanna pick em both up, we can probably come to a good deal on em.

The graphics tablet thing was only if I could get one pretty cheaply - over $100 is probably more than I should be spending right now (although I probably should avoid spending at all, given that we're about to move to a pretty expensive area).

How much would you take (including shipping) for the iBook? Do you have a power adapter and battery for it? What condition is the battery in (not sure how relevant that is to my friend, but I figure I may as well ask)?
