Just wanna get an idea of what I could get for a MDD Dual 867, with 1GB ram, and a 17" Studio Display LCD. Thinking about getting a laptop, but I dunno if im ready to let go of my desktop yet. Really liking the 15 inch AL book, but I think thats outta question. What laptop could I get for my setup?

To be honest I don't know what something like this would go for, I do however know its the type of thing that im looking for.

So I would be curious to know what the price would be aswell.

I have seen dual 867 towers sell for $1600 CDN with all that except monitor..so a trade would be fair on the ibook, and if just a sale I would say $1200 US + shipping...including monitor add another $100 for a total of $1300...cheers Mark...moonsocket is a very reputable person as well!

Make sure you really want a notebook before purchasing. I went through the whole have to have a G4 iBook thing a few weeks ago, and the speed/inferior lcd/limited expandability was just not good enough of tradeoff for me. I imagine the dual 867 would kick the pants off of even the 1.25ghz 15" AlBook in performance.
As far as value, I imagine the tower is worth about $1250, and the studio display is worth $150 or so if a crt, or $400-500 if its an lcd.
