I paid $230 for mine with 192 MB of RAM running OS X Jaguar and it had
Office 2001 installed, so it wasn't a bad deal. Plus, I remember there
being some G4 upgrades for the Lombard, also. Plus, with the nice
1024x768 screen and the 512 MB RAM limit, it's really a good budget
'Book.
Just my humble opinion,
Caleb

I agree with Caleb 100 per cent. A Lombard, for the price, is a great
laptop. I love the 4-5 hours on a battery as well as the speed and I
love
how easy it is to upgrade compared to the ibook. It's a little more
than
the first poster wanted to pay, but I got mine for $150US for a basic
configuration. They seem to go from $150 to $250 depending on
configuration. Maybe if you wait, you can get an even better deal.

To be honest, as everyone knows, my main Mac for a while was my 190,
but now that I think about it, I had to use my PeeCee for so much back
then that the 190 never saw any serious duty as anything other than a
word processing machine. Now that I've gotten my Lombard, I don't even
use my year-old desktop PC, because it's such a pain compared to my
Lombard and OS X. To be completely honest, I can't see how I'd get by
without my Lombard, now that I've got one. It's plenty old enough, and
it's still semi-respectable.
