Well, its not a new one, but its the first mac Ive owned...so I think it will be good enough for now. I took a chance and bought it off ebay, the seller seemed legit 150/150 positive feedback and most of his other listings had been for macs and mac related parts...

Powerbook G4 15"
1.5ghz
80g hd
1g ram (2 x 512)
no super drive though

Theres one or two scratches on the lid, bottoms the same...nothing major. There is one dent on the back, it looked a lot worse in the picture, but its actually pretty small. The keyboard and inside looks almost brand new, no scratches or dirt or palm marks. Im pretty psyched, this thing is a lot lighter and its going to be great for carrying around. Its also nice and quiet, my other laptop sounds like a tank lol. Ill probably upgrade too 2 1gig ram sticks later. Ill post some pics in a bit.
