If it's one of the last 2005 models, before the Intel switch? Definitely go for it! "Last of their kind, top-of-the-line" models tend to be more collectible for anything in general, and of course, people want just about anything with a bitten fruit logo on it.

The 12" PBG4 also had a bit of a cult following due to its compact footprint and better build quality over the iBook G4s, so I'd say it's also worth it from that perspective.

I mean, hey, roughly US$37? That's pretty cheap, and you might actually get some use of it if the battery's any good.

Well battery is KO, however i will get enough parts to build second one as well 😀 + two original chargers

I'd grab it, personally. Have a PowerBook G4 here myself I still need to get a power cord for.

I still kind of regret not bidding on a top of the line 17" Powerbook G4 (2005 model, 1.67GHz, 1680x1050 display) that turned up at local (not online) auction I was at a couple of years ago. At the time I didn't bid because I'd been at the auction before and they'd never let anything with an apple logo on it go cheap before - Any apple laptop was expected to sell for the price of a MacBook. I'd seen this Powerbook G4 come up before and they started the bid at $100 and then passed it in. This time they started it at $20 and I was shocked when they actually let it sell for $30.

Yes they will be, old mac's are sought after for some reason

So i bought it, thanks everyone 😀
