    Selling a month old 17" powerbook

    I don't know what I was thinking.
    I am a PC user, and don?t have the patience to ?switch.?
    I just dropped $3500 and I miss my right mouse click.

    Gig of RAM, 80 gig HD, and I loaded it with $1000's in software, too.

    photoshop
    Office
    Illustrator
    Dreamweaver
    FLASH
    Final Cut Express
    +more

    But I think I want to get a PC instead if I can find a buyer for...$2800.

    Anyone?

    Or should I list it on ebay?

              Cool. I'm embarassed to say I've never used ebay.

              I guess its time to start. thanks.




              And, Equinox, I pretty much got the best of everything they offered. You can get a much cheaper one off apple.com if you don't need it so beefy.

                    I was suprised. I thought I would pick it right up. But I find myself avoiding the (very pretty) thing at all costs.

                    p.s. Bummed you didn't make it to Santa Monica. See you soon, I hope!

                        Yeah, I like my computers lean, especially on the software side. Good luck selling it

                          No, list it without reserve. Works better

                                      I was just trying to be cute. There's lots of things that I'm not getting the hang of. I actually do have a usb mouse attached.

                                            sometimes that joke is funny, but for halcyon it is so far from fitting it just didn't even get a smile out of me

                                                  I need that thing like there's no tomorrow but tight on cash.

                                                      I am a PC user, and don?t have the patience to ?switch.?
                                                      I just dropped $3500 and I miss my right mouse click.

                                                      Gig of RAM, 80 gig HD, and I loaded it with $1000's in software, too.

                                                      But I think I want to get a PC instead if I can find a buyer for...$2800.

                                                      Anyone?

                                                      Or should I list it on ebay?

                                                      Oh my God, what a dumb reason for giving up the best machine you'll ever have. Either buy a mouse and get your "right click" back, or start learning to hold down the "CTRL" button. CTRL+ click = right click.

                                                      Give it some time, man. After you get used to Macs you'll never want to use a PC again.

                                                        If you'll try using it for two weeks to give it some time and then still don't want it, let me know. I have one and was going to buy an iBook for my fiance for Christmas. Maybe I'll buy your Powerbook instead.

                                                        Is the software legit? You still have all the disks, etc?

                                                          I was being cute about the right click. I actually have a USB mouse attached right right click and scroller.
                                                          It is just taking me too long to get the hang of the mac OS and final cut. I'm trying to use it wuth an external HD with minimal luck. What I really need is a beefy desktop and Premiere (that I know how to use).

                                                          Except for final cut, I do not have the disks. I can remove the extra programs if desired.

                                                            I'll give this some consideration over the weekend, and I'll ask my girl what she'd think about having a Powerbook. She really likes the look and size of the iBook. We'll see what she says.
