I'm currently selling my 17" powerbook G4, in it's original box.


It seems I over-estimated.. If anyone's interested, let me know. If not, So be it. I'll probably end up picking up the 15" Mac Book Pro anyway

-Colin


Battery holds a full charge-
The machine has 512 megs of RAM, and a 80GB Hard Drive, plus Bluetooth and Airport Extreme (802.11g)

The machine has Applecare paid up until May 2008, and I'll include a boxed copy of iLife 06.

I'm hoping to buy one of the 15" Macbooks- Work has been pushing me to get a Windows machine (Virtual PC isn't cutting it), and I'd love to try Oblivion

The machine has a tear in the bottom right corner, by the Superdrive, as shown in the Photos. It doesn't affect operation- The DVD still works properly.


I love the machine, but the Macbooks are tempting- For someone who is doing work in programs that aren't Universal yet (Photoshop, etc), this is a great machine. Hell, it's a great machine even compared to a 15" macbook- The additional screen width is hard to give up












With Applecare, etc, I don't think $1580 is an unreasonable asking price- That said, I'm probably overlly attached to the machine. If no one's interested, that's cool too.

Bumping, because I'm offing it outside of eBay.

1.5 Ghz, but the longer I hang on to it, the more I'm enjoying having it. All in all, it's a nice PC- Given that I'm not likely to get a good offer for it, I may end up hanging onto it for production work, and just getting a cheap Macbook, or Mac mini for intel testing.
