Ha, mine's better. :P (J/K) Mine is 200 MHz faster than yours and has more RAM, though yours has a larger HD than mine. I have the "early 2004" model that I got refurbished from apple.com.

No matter what, it's still fast and runs beautifully. I haven't used Mac OS X in years.

I guess it's just the warehouse inventory ID. I bought it from a computer resaler from Sacramento called PowerON. They are gaining recognition.

LOL, good mouse or not, its awful funny to see a PC mouse on a Mac, especially when the user of said Mac talks them up to be such wonderful things.  :rofl2:

One of my teachers at my school has an iBook G4 (all the teachers do, the school gave all the teachers iBook G4's about 3 years ago or so), and she uses an MS mouse on it because the touchpad is broken. I've actually used the teacher iBook G4's before (not the one with the broken touchpad, though), and it's a 12 inch like Gil's, and they are QUITE small, especially now I've gotten used to my 15.4" Dell laptop. :yes:

Apple doesn't make iBooks anymore. ;) However, you can find them (like Gil did) on sites such as eBay. :yes:
