Well, I have this Powerbook and I realize I really just want to play video games. My brother is sick of letting me use his computer... well refusing to let me use his... so I have decided to unfortunately part ways with the sex of OSX and build a windows machine so I can play Counter-Strike Source and TFC Classic!

-15'' Powerbook G4 1.67ghz
-1 gig of ram
-80 gig Hard Hard Drive
-Super Drive
-OSX 10.3
-Legit Copy of Microsoft Office 2004
-Bluetooth/Airport Extreme
-Apple Bluetooth Keyboard
-Bluetake BT500 bluetooth mouse
-Griffin iCurve
-Legit copy of Unreal Tournament 2004


NO dead pixles, but there are I'd say three very small spots of back light leakage. Ones at the bottom left, ones at the bottom right, and there is one about two inches up from the bottom. These aren't obtrusive at all, but I wanted to let people know. They are there but are hardly a focal point at all and they aren't bad at all. I just wanted to be up front.

Also there is a small dent where the charger unit goes. The battery and charging thing are fine, they work great. Battery is still great and has 99% battery life during a full charge... but sometimes the light that goes on when the plug is in cuts out. This does not effect charging at all.

Lets start this at PRICE NOW 800 + shipping and see where this gets us. It does come with a lot of stuff.

I'm open to offers but haters please stay out...

Here's where you can see the dent. It's not big and it's not obvious... but it's there and I wanted to be honest.

As you can see, the light for the charger still lights up (green when fully charged or orange when charging)

In Picture 7, you can't see the back light leakage, but that's the reflection of the titanium.

I tried to take a photo but it's very hard to even capture what i'm talking about since the area is so small.

Hmm, it may have been because I changed my email address to my gmail account from my Spymac account and it disabled them?

I have to go to work until about 4am or so, but I'll check the PM's around 1:30am
