Thinking about buying this PowerBook 5,7 for the wife, just for surfing, email, games and youtube use. Does it still have a few years left? Price is $380.00. Thanks in advance!

Edit: it shoud be 1,67 GHZ not 1.57ghz...

It will work, but YouTube might be a bit slow and if those games are browser and Flash based, they might also be a bit hard to play.
