    I think this is better suited to the "wanted to buy" forum. ;-)

    Mods, anyone?

    If you must have a PowerBook G4, then the last 15 inch ever produced is the one to aim for. It has the 15.2 inch screen with a resolution of 1440 x 960 according to Apple's Specs page:

    PowerBook G4 (12-inch, 15-inch, 17-inch Double-Layer SD) - Technical Specifications

    It came out less than 6 months before the first MacBook Pro.

    There is no way you can get that sort of price unless those people are hiding something from you or they don't know their stuff.

    Seriously, get it now.
