Hello !
I won a refurbished Powerbook G4. For the ones that don´t know (as I did): Refurbished means that it is used but completely reworked by Apple. So it´s like new.

Here are the specs:
Powerbook G4 Aluminium
1,5 GHz
15"
80 GB HD
Combo drive
WLAN (what is it called, Airport...?)
new battery (the old was one of the explosive ones...)

I want to sell it, but have no idea how much I can ask for it.
Even Apple could not help me (strange...).

the refurbs are for all intents and purpose as good as brand new.
I own one and I could tell no difference whatsoever to my brand new g4 ppc out of the box.
I don't know that I would even mention it when attempting to sell.
I don't think of this as dishonest in that either way a used computer is a used computer. I wouldn't claim it as "new" though. I'd say it was "opened" but barely used. check ebay for similar items to get an idea of a price I think.

I have the same PowerBook. I bought it refurbished from Apple for $1500US and they sell for $1200 - $1400US on ebay.

Why don't you just keep it? Even though the dual core MacBooks are faster, the PB G4 still works well with Live6.

Cheers,
