| Personally, I don't trust eBay worth a damn. There are too many schmucks out there to just put your full trust in to send something out of their own free will. It's way too easy to lie on eBay, and I've got to imagine that there are a thousand new court cases a month having to do with eBay. The chances are just too high for total scammage; I'd rather just buy it from manufacturer and pay a couple extra (hundred) dollars.

Yes, the PowerBook name has been around for almost 15 years, starting with the PowerBook 100 series. People mistakenly think that the name "PowerBook" came from the laptops having PowerPC processors, but they were called that way before the PowerPC made it into the Macs. Incidentally, this wasn't Apple's first portable computer. There was a "laptop" called the Macintosh Portable. Not very light, and battery life wasn't that great either. I guess you could call it one of the first desktop replacement Macintosh computers. LOL

| Holy cow! So that IS a real PowerBook--just a very old PowerBook. Wow. I had no idea they'd been around so long and looked like that. I guess I just witnessed a piece of Apple history! lol
