Oh, Bummer. I got excited about swapping the Lombard. Mine has a lot of stuff for it and a larger HD, but I still would have trouble getting $500 for it on eBay, so I was getting all set to trade it for a fully loaded 17" PB. Guess not. Yes, it'd be crazy to trade in a G4 PB on this deal, unless it's BROKEN and doesn't have AppleCare, of course. :)
Apple must think no one heard of eBay, and maybe some haven't and will be tricked into trading in, instead of reselling their older PBs.
