used iBooks and PowerBooks on ebay
Is there a known and trusted seller on ebay that specializes in selling used Mac stuff? Im looking for a nice used OSX iBook or PowerBook, but since its ebay, I figured Id ask ahead of time.
TIA |

Check Apple website for a reconditioned one, may be a little more but you won't get screwed.

Or if you want to get really fancy and geek/techie you can do what I did last weekend; get a new hard disk for your existing Intel based laptop (IBM/Lenovo T60p in my case) and install (a-not-so-legal-version) Mac OS X, working like a champ (typing this now in Mac mode) but not for the faint of heart ... and yes I do have multiple Mac OS licenses.

Good question, what could I get for my PowerBook G4 if I sold it right now?

Tim,
You could get my Powerbook G3 if you asked me nicely.  Sherwood |

Humm, I basically have a Mac graveyard in my home office. As well as the G4 and a G3, I also have an old emac which well was dissected, but still runs like new without any covering.
Perhaps it would be good to sell the G4 before it looses the last bit of value it has.

I have a 15" Powerbook G4 that is in near perfect condition that I'll part with. It was a backup that I bought to replace my 12" powerbook, but I ended up not using it (I liked the smaller computer). A visiting scholar used it at work for a month or two. Other than that it has been sitting in the closet.
Let me know if you're interested and we can figure out a fair price. |
