how much of a hurry are you for a machine? ive been tempted to get rid of my 12" 1.5GHz G4 Powerbook. its got a mucky faceplate (but i just today bought a replacement on ebay), but its a good old workhorse (i use it as a work machine - web & print stuff). got a nice big stick of RAM in there, and loaded with goodies. would be tempted to let it go for about 400 clams email me if you want to chat about it

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
