Hey everyone,

I've tried listing this on local Craigslist, and I've gotten a ton of responses-- except I would prefer to not deal with anyone that cannot type a complete sentence. All of my responses (about 15) have made me wonder how such people can exist, let alone, use a computer.

In any case, this is a last generation iBook with these specs:

12" LCD
1.33ghz G4
512 RAM soldered in + 512 RAM in the slot for a total of 1.0gb (maximum of 1.5gb)
ATI Mobility Radeon 9550 w/32mb
40gb HDD
Combo Drive
2 USB 2.0 Ports
1 FW Port
Airport Extreme
Bluetooth
Original battery still gets 4 hours charge
This model also includes sudden motion sensor, and two finger scrolling trackpad... (a huge reason why I got it)

This computer is in very nice condition, there are no major scuffs, no major scratches or any other major cosmetic problem. The screen 'nubs' on the border of the LCD have come off, but this is hardly noticable at all and does not have any effect on the computer whatsoever. It feels solid, runs solid and has been great for me.

This includes a MacAlly AC Adapter, a Booq XS (forgot the name... Boa maybe?) back/shoulder bag, and the original restore disks with Tiger on them.

I was hoping for $500 + shipping for everything. I'll post pictures when my camera finishes charging.

It's a great price! They were probably mucking the sentences out of excitement :p Good luck on the sale.

That's a fantastic price, IMHO. The RAM ceiling is the only drawback on these machines, but they're still pretty nimble, damn solid laptops.

I saw this listed on Craigslist, but unfortunately i just don't have the extra money. And I can type in complete sentences too. LOL

I'm selling some PCs on craiglist and have gotten similar responses were I question how these people turned on their computer to email me.

Actually the ram ceiling on this is 1.5gbs, HIGHER than the last PPC 12" Powerbook, which maxes out at 1.25gigs of ram. This iBook is a great machine.

Sorry 'bout that! :cool:

I'm sure you can find another one. They are pretty easy to come by, though you may not find such an awesome deal as this one.

I'd be interested. If I can get enough money before you sell it, I'd take a hit at it.
