Seems pretty close to a good deal...how used was it?...if it's barely used, I'd say it's a pretty decent deal.

Yeah its barely used looks like a resale from a guy who never used it, checked serial number with Apple everything checks out no service history etc. YAY im glad because i know there is the current revision the 1.33ghz new with student discount would cost 1898 CAD plus 14% tax so this was better for me graphics chips are the same the other is a bit faster, are the buses and l2 cache the same? The ddr must be pc 2100 in the 1ghz right? And 2700 in the newer 12" powerbooks?

Yeah, it's PC2700 in the new PowerBooks, as well as double the video ram and a slightly faster processor. It seems like a good deal, though! Good luck with your PB, I'm sure you'll have many years more of happiness with it!

That is a nice deal.
I bought my used tibook for a bit less, but that is a great deal, since it's a recent processor, a good amount of ram and it's still in the warranty.
Have fun with your new mac
