I'm looking to buy my first Mac, and I came across an auction for this one, and I just wanted to know how a fair price for it would be... :)

Specs:

Model: G4 MDD
Processor: 1.42GHz x 2
Memory: 2GB DDR RAM
Hard Drive: 120GB
Network: 10/100/1000 Ethernet & Airport Extreme card
Multimedia Drive: Superdrive
Video: Ati Radeon 9000 Pro
Applecare: For 2 more years... ;)

According to the seller, it has all the original disks and boxes, and appears to be in pretty much pristine condition. I don't want to low-ball the guy, but obviously I don't want to pay too much for it, either. Thanks a lot for helping me with my very first post, guys!

Well, even with the G5s out, this is still going to be a pretty expensive computer. I'd say probably at least $2000, especially with all that RAM, the AirPort card, and the Applecare, perhaps even as much as $2100-$2200.

I found a system on eBay while browsing with specs similiar to mine (it feels so odd to say that, "mine", heh...), and here's a look at it:

Holy ****! That's a great price. You got for almost half of what the seller could have gotten for it. I hope there's nothing wrong with the machine. It's good it's a local thing.
