aido Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 No worries fella, was gutted when I got mine as six weeks later they brought out the Intel ones, so it's the last G4 model they did, same as what you've got here The backlit keyboards are awesome, surprised they've not made the move over to normal laptops yet!

GazzaGSi Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 Must admit the backit keyboard is excellent. First time I saw it earlier! Just wish my normal lappy had one. Obviously a nightmare without the light on lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzaGSi Posted February 9, 2009 Author Share Posted February 9, 2009 1 thing I forgot to add, he also bought a copy of microsoft office for Apple machines as it was going to be used for his work from home. So it has a very similar setup to the likes of MS word, excel, powerpoint etc on installed on the powerbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 It's was an opening offer to get things moving, I'd like it but not enough to offer close to what it's actually worth I'm afraid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseys Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 £250. bearing in mind that the latest model has also come out and that this most likely won't run the next version of OSX. Also can you check how long the battery lasts nowadays? As that will cost £70-90 to replace. My current Macbook pro at 12 months old only lasts 90% of the battery life it did from new.

GazzaGSi Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Considering its only been charged 3 times max Im guessing the battery should be fine. Shame my laptop isnt, if I pulled the plug now it would turn off, not even enough juice in the battery for it to hibernate/sleep. Will go with ebay, thought I'd give forum member the chance first.
