Just looking around for a possible trade. My specs:
iBook G4/933MHz (Nov 2003 model)
40GB HD, 384MB RAM (Apple RAM), CDRW/DVD Combo Drive, 32MB ATI 9200 Mobile AGP (I believe that's what it is), CDs, Manuals, Original Box
2 yrs left on AppleCare, transferable
Looking for:
15" Titanium, no less than 667MHz (prefer 800MHz) and also at least a CDRW drive and same amount of RAM.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this machine, I am just looking for an older Powerbook. Any questions just ask.

Few ?'s:
What is the VRAM on this machine, as well as resolution?
How well does it run Panther? Any flaws or hardware problems? Thanks.

16MB radeon mobility. 1152X768
Don't know about Panther, I use 10.2.
Hardware's fine. It's got a minor crack in the case (not screen) by the left hinge, but it's been there for a while.

Not bad, I'm just more concerned with the resolution as I have 1024x768 right now, was hoping it at least had 1280...but it's not keeping me from trying to decide. Still open to other offers as well though if they come through.
Scot...how do you like the resolution overall on the display?

I like how it is.
I keep my IM windows open on the left, and still have a 'normal' screen size to work with for web browsing or writing.
I can get 2 word processor windows side by side, and it's useful when coding, because the bars on the sides of eclipse don't get in the way so much. It also supports monitor spanning, so if you plug in another monitor you can get more space.

Cool...still thinking. Hopefully you aren't in a hurry Scott.
Also, if anyone has something a little newer than his PB, I'd consider throwing in my 4th Gen iPod 20GB (bought in aug of this year). Just some info.

No rush. I haven't even gotten my new PB yet. I might be interested in buying your ipod in a few weeks, depending on the money situation.

Just FYI - it'll run panther fine. I've got a TiBook 500 and it runs it flawlessly.
