Feeler: 14 inch 1.33Ghz iBook

I got this early Janurary. It has 512 Ram and a 80 gig HD -- along with Applecare from time of purchase. I'm looking for an idea on what it would sell for because i am very unsure if I want to sell.

ALSO has bluetooth

Also if I do chose to sell how does one go about erasing all my information on the HD?

boot up on install cd and reformat drive using disk utility.

When you erase the hard drive, make sure to at the very least do the one that writes over all the data with 0s. If you do the regular erase, your data could still be recovered. Of course, don't go overboard and do the 35 point erase, unless you were a spy or used your laptop for super secret purposes :D

I'm not sure how much your iBook is worth, but is there a particular reason you're thinking about selling it?

[greenguy4]

Well two reasons:

1. I am thinking of upgrading to a PB at some time in the near future

2. The idea of having the Ripple affect has been KILLING me... haha

no estimates on a price...?

I sold my 12" 1.2/bt/airport/1.25gb/30gb/applecare/extras for $900.. I would imagine your's will sell around that since it's 14" and a bigger hd.. if you had more ram it would definately top $1000.
