Laptop for sale!
It's a Macintosh Powerbook G3 (Lombard), 333 Mhz, 4 gig hard drive, 256 megs of RAM, 24x CD-ROM drive. It's running OS X 10.2 (Jaguar) and will ship with a retail CD of OS X 10.1. It's in great shape because it never (and I mean never quite literally) left the house. The LCD display has no bad pixels. Pictures are available if you want to look before you buy.
There's a review and a full list of specs at http://www.powerbookcentral.com/reviews/lombardreview.shtml.
These laptops are currently selling for $500ish on eBay, so I'm asking $500 now, plus shipping. Express mail is $37.50 for overnight delivery, regular ground parcel post is $18.14 for 7 days.
In the interest of full disclosure between friends--you may have to get a new battery for it because the current one runs down more quickly than it should. You can get the battery reconditioned, but I can't promise that will help.
Otherwise, as far as I can tell, everything works fine. That said, this is sold as-is. Computers are finicky, y'know?
Profile email address is good for inquiries.
The date is December 20th, the airing of the two-hour pilot.

Since you all don't know each other, I suggest meeting up at a bar or restaurant in your area that will allow you to turn the television to Firefly, and wouldn't mind a news crew hanging around, if your affiliate covers it.
Please email Allyson@davidfury.net if you want to contact your FOX affiliate to ask them to cover your party.
Thos who have EMAILED me that they are looking for a host I'm working on it. If you've posted to me, I probably haven't had time to pick it up off the board.
Nathan Fillion (Mal) has offered an autograph and his recipe for low fat seven layer dip to anyone hosting a party.
Did everybody but me know that you can now buy the Once More, With Feeling script?
Nutty will be hitting DC this Sunday, and we've only just made plans. Yes, we're slackers. But if any DC-area Buffistas would like to join us, we'll be at the Banana Cafe in Eastern Market at around 6:30pm tomorrow. Email me at my profile addy if you want to come, so we have an idea of how many to get a table for.
It's last minute, I know, but I'm in L.A. and can host a viewing party for the Serenity show on the 20th. I have room for around 15-20 people but not a lot of furniture, so it would need to be BYOchair. Anyone interested, please contact me at leeneugebauer@attbi.com.
