| You might want to look at a used PowerBook G4 or an older iBook G3 or iBook G4. You can check the following link from Low End Mac for some good deals: http://www.lowendmac.com/deals.shtml

| Also, telephone local companies. See if they are upgrading their equipment and are happy to sell on. I believe Adobe have a database of graphic design, print, etc. companies.

| OWC has some dirt cheap G3 laptops.. starting at $209. You may be able to get a low-end TiBook, but they suffer from hinge problems, paint chip problems, and the iBook is cheaper.. They do look sweet, however. You can get a wide variety of used laptops on eBay, but they're not always the cheapest.

| Actually, OWC sells wireless (Airport) iBooks for $219, below your budget.
