I don't want to sell my Powerbook... - AllGold - 05-15-2007

and I don't really know why. It's like I have some sentimental attachment. It's not like I'm going to use it because I upgraded to a MBP a couple months ago and the Powerbook has been collecting dust ever since.

Yeah, it's nice to have a backup but sheesh, I still have my Tibook too.

I think I need therapy. Wink

Give it to me and I'll make sure it writes home at least once a week. Smile

I always have a hard time making the decision to sell a mac let alone pack it and ship it out. I am sure it's a sickness.

I still have my Performa 6230CD, you're not that bad. I mean, if you need help, then I guess I'm beyond help.

Better yet, I still have my 6205CD from back in the day. Still have my 2400c's as well (both mint, one upgraded to the 'which ever was that better 320MHz G3 upgrade', me and my brother use them as back-ups). Heck, the most modern machine I have is either the 700MHz G3 iBook or 500MHz Cube. It's a sickness. Though I'm sure I'll rationalize the dispensation of one or two of them when I buy a Core 2 Duo based Mini (hint, hint Apple...or perhaps I can upgrade an existing Mini with one of those?).

I still have my powerbook 100. Talk about dust. This one does not have dust bunnies it has dust dinosaurs.

I'd like to add that I can stop ANY time I want to.

I try to share my obsolete Macintoshes with people that I know would really appreciate it but cannot afford one.

I am on my 3rd cube, I shouldn't have sold it the first 2 times. This is my last one, I promise.
