I desperately need the portability of a laptop, and my 20" iMac just doesn't travel well.
Here are the specs:
- 2GHz G5 processor
- 20" widescreen display
- 2GB RAM (upgraded from 512mb using crucial RAM in October '05)
- 400GB hard-drive (yes, it's huge and it was a BTO option... 250GB was the standard size)
- ATI Radeon 9600 video card with 128MB of VRAM
Also included:
- Original box, manuals, installation CDs, and the twisty ties (if you want 'em)
- Apple Pro Wireless Mouse
- Apple Pro Wireless Keyboard
- AppleCare extended warranty. There are over 600 days left in it.
This model was introduced in June 2005 and I purchased it just a few days after it was released. It's the Rev. B model, and it does not feature a built-in iSight camera. The upside? It's fully user-serviceable, meaning you can easily open up the back and replace anything that needs to be fixed. It can also be attached to a VESA mount if you want it on your wall. I haven't had a single issue with this beautiful machine, and it's been nothing but a joy to use since I bought it. It was my first Mac, and I'm sorry to let it go... but it's blatantly obvious to me that I need a laptop this semester. I can't be stuck at home.
What am a looking for?
Any model of the MacBook Pro.
If you have a Powerbook, I want at least:
- 1.25GHz G4 processor
- 80GB hard-drive
- 64MB VRAM and a decent video card
- AppleCare would be
nice, but it's not entirely necessary
My iMac is in pristine condition, so I expect the machine I'm trading it for to be the same. I realize the portability of the Powerbook/MacBook Pro can lead to a few knicks/dings, so just be honest and tell me if there are any.
Oh, and it HAS to be a 15" model.... the 12" Powerbooks had horrible resolutions and the 17" is too damn big for me.
Let me know what you have. I check my PMs daily and I visit this forums more than once a day, so I'll get back to you ASAP. Depending on what you offer, we can then discuss the inclusion of additional cash (from either you or me) and go from there.
Thanks!

Only the iMac is up for grabs... I'm keeping those lovely speakers pictured above and I don't have the iBook anymore.
