Well, now that I've restored the second "toilet seat" iBook [0], I've
decided to sell off our 2000 Firewire G3 Powerbook (Pismo).
Here are the specs:
-G3/400
-512M RAM
-10G HD
-14.1" screen
-24x CD (it came with a DVD, but like oh so many other Pismo DVD's, it
broke. I replaced it with a 24x CD just a week ago. But, it can do
DVD's if you swap in the right drive.)
-Power Adaptor.
It's in good cosmetic shape - normal light wear, and light keyboard
"scuffs" on the screen that you can only see when it's off. All the
ports work, and the battery still holds a decent charge. (It's been
plugged in for the better part of 6 months, being used as a bedside
alarm clock!)
Price is $500 + shipping. Based on what I've seen on eBay, this is a
fair price, plus you know it's been treated well. It'll come with an
"eval" of OS X loaded.

[0] I picked it up from $FORMER_EMPLOYER, where it had been badly
mistreated by an employee. I was rather pissed, as this was my laptop
when I was there, and I really liked it. It's an original (3G drive)
tangerine iBook. I just finished replacing the horribly mangled CD
drive.
