first post!,
hey all, i just got a ti g4 powerbook 15" very cheap with a lot of software. Now i am hooked and since i have a lot of PC's at home, i'd like to get rid of most of them and get a nice powermac with a nice display. Here is the deal, does anyone know of companies or websites in europe that sell used or refurbished macs cheaply? i am pretty broke and i cant get much for my PC's and i REALLY dont wanna sell the powerbook. So y upper limit is like 2000 Euros , but that must include a display, so i have seen Dual G4's very cheaply but i never seen an old studio display for example for sale. Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

PS: i am still blown away by Panther. As an old time Linux freak this is really something with a WOW effect...

Try the Refurbished department of the Apple online store. You don't say which country you're in, the Euro refurb stores are usually only open Wednesday from 11am untill sold out and offer up to 45% of retail prices.

Also check the "Previous Generation" section you could probably pick something new up at a good discount.

btw the way this probably should have been posted in "Buying tips, advice and discussion" if you wanted people to notice it.
