Terminated, Part 5: The Great Computer Give-Away, Part 2 (Apple PowerBook 12″ G4 867 Mhz) [Updated]

Update: The PowerBook has been given away.

Last time, I gave away a Mac clone from the ’90s. This time, I’m giving away this machine: a 2003-era 12″ PowerBook G4:

Some specs:

  • 867 Mhz PowerPC G4 processor
  • 640K RAM (the maximum)
  • 1024 * 768 screen resolution
  • 40 GB hard drive
  • “Combodrive” (Reads and burns CD-ROMs, reads DVDs)
  • AirPort Extreme card

Here’s a peek at the ports on its left side:

The right side has just the CD/DVD slot:

And yes, it can be yours…FREE!

How Can You Get This Machine?

Alas, you can’t anymore; it’s been given away.

  • The PowerBook G4 in general is a real trooper of a machine, and in my opinion the form factor is more or less unsurpassed.

    Joey, I hope you post some of the best reasons people send in!

  • From the everymac link:

    *Apple officially reports that the maximum memory capacity of this system is 640 MB with 128 MB of onboard memory and a single 512 MB memory module. However, third-parties have been able to upgrade the RAM to 1152 MB with a single 1.0 GB memory module.
