[QUOTE="MacDude121, post: 1360573, member: 173432"] For $150, you can probably get a hold of the top of the line iBook G4, I've seen them with 1.5GB of ram even for only $125 or so. Even though the PowerPC architecture is "dead" the old Apple laptops still have a few drops of life left in them, and should work for typing papers, surfing the internet, and doing what you need to do to get by until you can afford a newer, faster machine. You could also go the route of the PowerBook, which is usually higher spec than the iBook G4, but most may be out of your budget. Have a look at your local craigslist, you'd be surprised what you can get for such a modest budget nowadays. [/QUOTE]
