[QUOTE="tatuboi04, post: 725399, member: 67430"] So, after 7 short months with my beloved macbook my idiotic friend spilt beer all over it one night and needless to say, it bit the dust. I took it in and of course they found liquid damage and said the logic board was dead, so basically I was looking at the price of a new computer. Several hundreds of $$ of student loans later I am bittersweetly proud to say that I am updating from my new macbook and will be keeping all forms of beverages (and idiotic friends) far, far away. BUT...onto my real question...what to do with the old macbook who is just sitting in my room? I had the hard drive taken out in the hopes that I can somehow get my pictures and thousands of songs off of it and put it on my new one. I thought about auctioning it off on ebay however I want to make sure that I don't let it go for less than it should. I realize that with a good for nothing logicboard and the hard drive out, it probably won't fetch very much, however I know lots of people out there can use some of its parts probably so was hoping someone could give me a ballpark figure to work with. It's a 13.3'', 2.0 GHz intel core 2 duo processor, 1GB DDR SBRAM ,80 GB 5400-rpm hard drive. Any advice is appreciated!! [/QUOTE]
