Right now, tonight, before 10pm Eastern, Auction Depot: www.auctiondepot.com
They have two G3 Wallstreets and the bide were at 450.00 last I looked. I would suspect that they will end up just over 500.00, but who knows? That would give your friend a relatively current PowerBook. MAC service and supplies are readily available from South Africa if she needs that. I've dealt with Auction Depot several times and I've always been satisfied with them.
