Most recent revision for this page dated Apr 7 2008
On this page I have a variety of Mac laptops and their parts. I will no longer add these older Mac laptops to my inventory as of December 2007. We are selling off the laptops listed below for $15 each plus shipping and packing. No battery, no A/C supply, no "power cord" - look for them elsewhere on this page. Laptops sold AS IS NO WARRENTY. Units may or may not have all the features mentioned, they will not be tested again. We've already sold some of these on these terms, and customers have been happy with their results.
Other Mac laptop parts and items on this page are likewise reduced in price, and sold without warrenty. They too will be gone by Dec 31 2007.
In addition, I have some unused laptop parts from a repair facility on another page. They are mostly internal cables, some plastic parts, and a few circuit boards (inverters, etc.). Check that page for details.
Links to sections on this page and elsewhere are:
Also, a more complete list of my Mac inventory and services by system or accessory or parts type can be found on my Mac home page.
