WTB: Powerbook G3 (Wallstreet/Lombard/Pismo)

[Daedalus256]

I recently sold my G3 Lombard to the girlfriend and well...I really miss the little guy. Looking for something to fill that place.

Can be a wallstreet, lombard or a pismo although I highly doubt I can afford a pismo. Let me know what you have!

Eh, I'd go with an iBook G3 but that's just me. Apple should still be covering them under the logic board plan. Or so we're told here on MacRumors.

Like a clamshell? I doubt they're in my range. Most clams go for over $200, which I can't afford at all.

I'm still waiting on my friend who was suppose to give me specs of a wallstreet he was going to sell me but he hasn't come through yet. I want to keep my options open :)

Wallstreets are nice, but I loved that Lombard.

I think that JUST ended. I was researching used laptops and came accross a link to Apples site detailing that program, and as I recall it terminated in the last few months, unless the system is less than 3 years old (which I don't think any of them are at this point?).

Hey! I got my original Lombard for $93 shipped

Of course I upgraded he crap out of it but hey, the initial purchase is what matters here!

Well just to close up this thread. My friend came through with a lovely wallstreet:

266mhz G3 (possibly has a 466mhz upgrade for it)
256MB RAM
20GB HDD
14.1" Screen

If I told you how much he's making me pay, you'd probably kill me. secret message! find it out to reveal how much I'm getting it for!
