i found this powerbook 867 ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWA%3AIT&rd=1 )
and it seems like a good deal, but when i did some research, it seems that powerbook only came with a firewire 400 and 2 USB 1.1. and this guy says it comes with 2 USB 2.0 and a firewire 800..
did apple produce an updated model?
thanks

I think you're over reacting. Did you look at his feedback? It is excellent, and he has sold many notebooks before.
Screwing up the FireWire specs is an easy mistake.

it looks legit to me. the guy has sold powerbooks before, and i could see how the firewire thing could be a little mucked up. i'd say email him to confirm or disconfirm the specs, but everything looks okay with the auction.
