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.

640K? I know the G4s are old, but I think it takes a bit more than that 🙂
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!
Hi Joey, what about giving it to Littlegeeks.org? They give internet and computer access to kids.
