you *are* aware that a PDQ (Not Wallstreet..the second generation with cache
and rage pro) 233 MHz, 14.1" screen 32 megs of ram machine can be had for 1999
retail (and as low as 1800 at some places), 1799 as an educational purchase,
and developers can get them for peanuts. This machine has a faster processor
(much faster), less ram (128 megs can be added for 200), the same harddrive, a
faster CDROM, and faster ethernet (not all 10bt is created equal).

Then consider this. the same machine i just described, but refurbished at the
apple store, and is a first generation 233 Wallstreet (ie. rage II graphics,
12.1" passive, no cache) which is still much better than your machine is
available for *1199*!!!!

Apple has amazingly dropped their prices lately and it's killing the resale
value of PowerBooks like yours...yours simply isn't worth anywhere near 1600..

Hope this helps,

Doug
