My amigo's eMachine has gone and bit the bucket after a few weeks of service, and now my friend is ready to switch. The budget is $650. Any of you have a computer you are willing to sell that will fit the price range.

lombard 333 running 10.2
4gb drive
512mb ram
dvd drive (although DVD playback in X on this machine is not supported by apple. Vlc works more or less.)
Has s-video to composite cable, has expansion bay weight saver module, has a good battery.
customized to have a white ibook keyboard instead of the bronze one.
Reliable, and fast enough for most normal tasks.

...why, yes they do.

rev 1 B&W G3/300 upgraded to 450MHz G4. 768MB RAM, Rage 128 16MB 66MHz PCI, can throw in IXMicro TurboTV card if it'll be running OS9. Could possibly add a Sonnet tempo SCSI card and external 4x SCSI CD-R (I've burned using toast).
