If I buy a slightly used PowerBook is the warranty still valid? Can I purchase the Apple Care extended warranty? Are there any other pitfalls to buying a slightly used PB? I'd be buying it locally. Any help would be great.

Every new Mac comes with a one year warranty. That warranty is transferable. To do this:

pitfalls of buying used would be the same as buying anything used, Never know where it has been or what has been done to it.
If you know/trust the seller then there should be no problems, just check it out first.
