I've purchased 5 520's now, for myself and a small group of 520 buddies. If the box is not too used(door, front plate still attatched, screen twist not loose, serial port not burned out) a b&w 4mg machine can be had for about $500, add $ 2or300 for dual scan, about $125 for 16 mg chip, and word 6 isn't particularly well suited for the 520(unless you spend much $ to upgrade to the 167mhz cpu and even more ram. expect the value to drop after january when the world is once again awash in new powerbooks jm
