i think I got this from the lowendmac site somewhere and saved it. If you
decide to go with an older Powerbook this recommedation seems relevant:
> Best Used Mac Buys
> Updated September 2001
......
> Laptops
> PowerBook 540c: The Blackbird series was Apple's best pre-PPC

> PowerBook 1400: Sometimes available for under US$200-350 and with a
> G3/333 upgrade option, this is a less costly alternative to the iBook.
> Avoid the cacheless 117 MHz model unless you plan on replacing the CPU.
There is probably a powerbook site you could query as well.
