Prototype? No... just a liar.

Look at the freaking About This Mac screen! It even says G4!

Report it for fraud.

The screenshot clearly says it's a PowerPC 1.5 G4.

I sent the seller a question on it. It could be an honest mistake.

Well as for prototype there was a MacBook Pro prototype going by the name of PowerBook(I so wish they still called them PowerBooks today, such a cool name for a notebook right?)

Heres the thread:Is this a Powerbook/Macbook Pro prototype?

Except it clearly was just a typo

maybe he confused the IBM processor with intel...

That's just somebody who doesn't know what they're talking about. It happens a lot.

Seller responded to my questions. Said it was just a mistake as they were posting a few notebooks. I would assume they will fix it now.

You mean a PowerBook G5? IBM never designed any laptop chips for Apple. iirc

Yeah Powerbook G5 was the rumor of the century! Everyone was on it.

lol, sorry, was it motorola who made the mobile chips then.

btw that was my feeble attempt at a joke because IBM and Intel sound a like. Even i dont get it.
