Quicktime Pro, mac OS 10.3, etc.

and where are you getting your rigged up the ass prices from?

Pricewatch = Pentium 4 3 GHZ 800 FSB with Hyperthreading and MOBO for 400, Ram doesnt cost 600 dollars? =)

Edit:

Not only is your price BLOATED as hell, but i just built a custom PC here (http://www.smksuperstore.com/404.asp?404;http://www.smksuperstore.com/8074/viewitem.htm) with Pentium 4 3 GHz 800 FSB, 1 GB Ram, Abit IS7E (AGP8x-PC3200-LAN- w/Serial ATA), ThermalTake fan, 550 watt ATX case with side window, 2 Fans, and 1028 MB PC3200 Dual Channel DDR ram for 675.04 Thats with 1 Year warranty might I add

So Please, try to make more of a fool outta yourself.

BTW. G3 iBooks from Apple.com DO NOT include Panther. Do your research before trying to bash someones deal. Thanks.

[RGunner]

Panther is included in all new Apples (as well as my price)..

QT pro is what $29? are you including the serial #?

....

My prices are from www.jncs.com a common supplier of boards and ram. Not a fly by night pricewatch.com company... And you asked for an Intel 3.2 not a 3.0

I was merely stating your are asking for a $2000 machine.

[pinto32]

This forum is getting rediculus...here is what I got...all prices are the best I could find on pricewatch....

3.2 Ghz Pentium 4 w/ heatsink & fan, Intel 845E chipset ----- $454.00
Lite-On LTR-52327 52X32X52 Internal EIDE CD-RW Drive--------$44.00
Western Digital WD1800BB 180GB EIDE Hard Drive--------------$132.00
SMART PC ATI RADEON 9600 128MB (uses ATi chipset)------------$90.00
Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy2 (retail version)--------------$87.00
1.5GB PC3200 Micron RAM [1GB ($152) + 512MB ($73)]---------$225.00
Logitech optical wheel mouse-------------------------------------------$20.00
keyboard of your choice--------------------------------------------------$30.00

so far, that comes to --------------------------------------------------$1082.00

Samsung SyncMaster 192N 19" LCD---------------------------------$560.00

OR

NEC AS125F 22" CRT----------------------------------------------------$488.00

That is a grand total of $1642 with the LCD or $1570 for with the CRT.
Case closed....

I also said to use it as your guideline so you get an Idea of what i am looking for, not to get the exact computer that I stated. If you are not interested then please do not bash it, thanks.

I also changed the specs of the computer I'd like, so please, make sure to look at it again..

[edesignuk]

I just have to say...you don't have a hope in hell of getting a PC anywhere near that spec in a trade for a 800MHz G3 iBook, you're dreaming if you think you will...

[pinto32]

I also forgot to add the case & power supply, which is approx. another $100...

....Going from a 3.2 -3.0 Ghz P4 will shave about $150-$200 off the price....thats a good difference, but this is still a top of the line system, so its still gonna have a top of the line price....

Considering how mis-matched this offer is, and the fact that you are treating the people in this forum like *****, you might as well just go to eBay and get what you can there for your iBook....and check out the Athlon XP's........
