Reasonable offers accepted.
This thing works great. I just have too many old computers laying around and the wife wants me to get rid of some of the ones I'm not using.

A few scratches on top. Much more visible in the pic due to the flash. In normal lighting, it isn't as apparent.



A little blurry, but the inside looks great. No cracked screen.



3rd party AC adapter with a crack in the casing.



A little blurry. Running OS9.



The additional accessories



Running OS X using ExPost Facto.



Last 2 pics are the bottom of the PB with scratches on the rubber coating showing the metal underside. This was a common problem with the Wallstreet line. I have seen several people actually just scrape off the rubber coating and have a black and silver bottom.

Would you trade for a 4G iPod 20 GB? It's an HP one, ultra rare Or maybe a 2G iPod shuffle in blue (the original dark blue)?
