Can you tell me, why the powerbook 5300c is only $400 more than the 540c? 
It seems like a powerpc is worth much more than an '040.  Also the new
Macmall catalog lists the new price of a 5300c as $2499.  Is yours new or
used?  Also are these one of the Macs that have been recalled?


Thankyou for your attention,

Derek
