I would like to either get a Macbook or Macbook Pro and sell my Powerbook but I don't really know what its worth and that mac2sell thing or whatever always prices high so I thought I would ask here

here it is:
late 2005 PowerPC G4
1.67ghz
80gb 5400rpm Hard Drive
1gb RAM (2x512)
ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 128mb VRAM
8x SuperDrive
1440x960 Resolution
Airport Extreme
Sudden Motion Sensor
Scrolling TrackPad

Notes:
-Bluetooth doesn't work because the airport card became disconnected some how and I took the computer apart to reconnect the airport. In the process i must have forgotten to reconnect the bluetooth and that is how it remains as of now so it has it and can be fixed. Comes with a D-Link DBT-120 USB bluetooth dongle that works great.
-Comes with a Quickertek Quicky 100mW USB Transceiver to boost the wifi signal strength by 3x. I bought this because the stock 30 mW airport cards in all powerbooks are not very good and have very short range.

Sorry..."price check" threads are required to go in the Marketplace and you don't have enough posts to start a thread there. We've had too many people circumventing the Marketplace rules by posting "price check" elsewhere that quickly evolve into "for sale" threads.
