Well...now that I have a G5, I'm finding myself not using my Powerbook as my primary machine anymore, and with classes starting soon, I'm looking to smaller and lighter. I know the rumors out there, so this will be priced accordingly. The only catch is I need to finish up a project with it so it won't ship for another week or two. So...from the possession of yours truly...Item #1984, a beautifully silver 17" Powerbook loaded.

Here are some pics:

Here are the specs:

17" Powerbook
1.5 Ghz G4 Processor
80 GB 5400 RPM hard drive (note: 5400 rpm, not 4200rpm...faster drive...not slower drive)
128MB Radeon 9700 Graphics
512MB Kingston (= lifetime warranty people) RAM
Built in APX and BT
Superdrive
Warranty until April 2005, and is still applicable for AppleCare

Ok, here's where things get fun...EXTRAS!!!

-iLife 05...yes that's OH-FIVE people...retail version with box.
-I can also throw in a 1GB RAM stick for an extra $125 to bring total RAM to 1.5GB
:eek: :eek: :eek:
-Comes with orignal discs, adapters, power cables, etc, etc, etc.

And what...do you ask...will you pay for such a fantastic computer package???

Well...considering that it would cost over $3000 for such a package...let's throw out....uh...

$2450 ($2575 with extra 1GB RAM) shipped to the lower 48??? Open to offers, but anything like $1000 is simply unacceptable folks. Thanks...

Sounds good to me...notice the $2575 with 1.5GB RAM vs. 2475, I can't add...duh.

Anyway, like I said, I know the rumors that are floating around, so I priced it to compete even if a new one comes out.

Just realized I said warranty was good until April 2004, well, I'm an idiot (again) and it's actually April 2005.

I also realized that I have a Brenthaven Professional Shoulder Bag made specifically for the 17" PB I can throw in for an extra $100. Comes with sleeve for the 17" and retails for $149.
