I have ended the auction until I re-take my pictures. If anyone would like to buy the PowerBook in the meantime, I'd sell for $1100 shipped. This is $100 more than the current 12" iBook (the closest in terms of features) and has 2.5x the RAM, a DVD burner, and the extras to go with it.

Hai...I'm sad to have to do this, but my job requires that I have a Windows laptop because the software I support is Windows-only and isn't compatible with Virtual PC no matter what OS I run on it. I'm going to have to sell this to get a Windows laptop and probably a Mac Mini. I got it right here on these boards from Leftbanke7:

12" PowerBook G4 1.33GHz
1.25GB of memory
60GB hard drive (stock)
4x SuperDrive

I've also got a Targus ZeroShock and a podium cooler I'll be adding in because I won't be able to use them anymore. I really don't want to sell it, but I kind of need to.

Heatware is under louis_sx

I can stop it early. I'd like to get a relatively decent Windows PC (smaller screen is OK) and a Mac Mini. If you have one or the other and are willing to do a +cash trade, that's OK. I can stop the auction if I get a deal going here.

I also have a Toshiba 80GB laptop hard drive in a USB2.0 enclosure I can toss in for added value. :D

Uh, I would at least spray some glass cleaner on a soft rag and clean all the finger marks off of it. It takes 4.3 minutes...

Would help the appearance a bit...

Would help the appearance a bit...I'm going to have to second that... only a couple minutes worth of work, and you'll noticeably increase the appeal of your powerbook. Who knows how much more that could be worth to you?

yeah, i shoudl have done that when I first took the pictures but didn't realize how it looked until I took the pictures...without a flash, it looks fine.

I'll redo them when I get home tonight. :)

At least, I'll retake the case ones. The screen is just blurry in the pics because the camera is cheap and evil.

I canceled the auction for the moment; I'd like to retake my case pictures. If you're interested in buying outright, I listed a price of $1100. I'd also like a Mac Mini and/or a Windows laptop so we could do a trade. Just PM or post your offers.

Deal pending for a Wintel laptop. I might have a Dell for sale in a couple days (or trade for a Mac Mini)...if this goes through, I'll start a different thread.

Yup, jono_3 and I have reached a deal to trade my PowerBook and laptop hard drive in enclosure for a Wintel box and a Wallstreet.

Just updating to keep everything public. :)
