Namely I need one rubber foot for my newly bought 12" Powerbook and the bottom left screw seems to be missing on the display (every other screw is there).

Also, could any of you chime in on how good of a deal I got on this thing? It's a 1.33GHz G4 12" Powerbook, 1.25GB RAM, AirPort, Bluetooth, 60GB HDD, etc. Plus a case for it, a wireless Mighty Mouse, the original box and manuals and discs, the mini-DVI to DVI and mini-DVI to VGA adaptors (I don't know if those are standard), boxed copies of 10.4 and Office 2004 and a spare battery (both hold over 4 hour charges) for $700. My friends seem to be indifferent about my purchase. Some say it's great, others are saying I shoulda just put that $700 down on a Macbook.

And there's a guy on eBay who sells little rubber pads for a few bucks that you can superglue on.

Personally, I think that you got a great deal with all of those accessories; you've got a pretty complete starter setup. You could probably sell the PowerBook and its cables on Ebay, keep Office and the mouse, make up about what you paid, and put that towards a MacBook.

Ouch, that's pretty harsh prices for just rubber feet...any chance the Apple Store sells these at a cheaper price?
