Just an explanation of the age....
2-3 years is considered obselete.
I recommend something a bit newer. A macbook would be ideal.

I think if you can buy a perfectly good mac laptop for that price, you will get a couple of years out of it. Then go and upgrade when you have the $$$

i can only think of 3 reasons to get it:
1. you need or want to run os 9. even then a few 900's would not boot into 9.
2. you will be using it a lot on your lap. the g3 ibooks are a little cooler.
3. you plan on being careless with it. you won't be out a lot of money if it's lost, damaged, or stolen.
if none of these 3 apply to you, get something newer. i myself am partial to older machines, but that's just me.
