Powerbook vs Road

I recently had the pleasure of leaving my powerbook on top of my car and driving away with it on top. Right when I remembered it was on the car, I see if fly off and hit the road. The case is seriously damaged, but still is working and is what I am using at the moment. I was thinking about selling it for parts to others. Is this a good idea, I hear its about 900-1200 for the repair and I might as well get a new one for that.

Powerbook 1.5 1.25G Ram 60G Hard Drive LCD and everthing still work.

I can replace the old powerbook with an exact replacment for 450. We have one at work, which is pratically still new. Would is be a good idea to just trade out the hard drives to keep all my information or just buy a new macbook.

I am also thinking about taking new/better pics and sending the story into apple. Powerbook lives after 60mph fall!
