Should I Sell it?

[rick3000]

So I just upgraded to a MBP, and will probably not be using my iBook anymore. I am wondering if it is worth selling or if I should just keep it. It's in great condition over all, here are the specs:
12" iBook G4 1.2Ghz
768MB RAM 60GB Hard Drive
Three Batteries (Two last 3.5 Hours, One lasts 2.5 Hours)
iSkin, Brenthaven Sleeve, Port Cover, and the Original Box

What do you guys think I could get for this? Is it worth selling?
Thanks!

You're probably only going to get a few hundred dollars for it, but I guess every little bit helps if you aren't going to use it.

I am not completely sure I won't use it. Because it is smaller and lighter than a 15" MBP, so I am thinking I might carry this around with me when I don't want to take the MBp. However if I could get $400-500 for the iBook would definitely sell it.

miles01110 is right. $200 is probably at the top end of the spectrum of what you expect the machine to bring you. Hows this for timing, just yesterday OWC posted an article in our blog on re-purposing PPC macs:

Your iBook still has good specs and with the extra batteries. I'd say you can fetch at least $300 for it either locally via Craigslist or eBay. You may get more from ebay but there will be fees associated with it.

I'd say keep it as it will be more useful if you fly long trips or just use it to check email or surf the web around the house.
