Chad W Smith's MacBook is for sale

Grab a piece of Internet History!

Alas, it is time for me to part with my old friend, my MacBook. Having revived it from the land of the dead, and restored it to better than new condition, I have to part with it. I have to pay off the debt I got into replacing it!

It is on ebay right now.

Here are the specs.

  • 1.83 Ghz Dual-Core Intel Core Duo Processor
  • 2 GB DDR2 PC2-5300 677 Mhz 200-pin SO-DIMM RAM
  • 80 GB 5400 RPM Hard Drive SATA
  • ComboDrive (CD±R/W & DVD)
  • 13.3" Screen at 1280 x 800 resolution native
  • Front Row (remote included)
  • Leopard Mac OS X 10.5.1
  • iLife '08
  • iWork '08
  • Microsoft Office 2004
  • Windows XP Professional SP 2
  • 2 USB 2.0 Ports
  • Wireless 802.11a/b/g/draft-n
  • Ethernet 10/100/1000
  • iSight web cam
  • built-in mic
  • headphone and mic jack
  • stereo speakers
  • Mini-DVI out
  • And more....
If you are interested, please check out the auction. If you "Buy it Now" at the Buy it Now price, I'll throw in my Brenthaven carrying case, which is $50 online.

I really hate to part with this computer, since it was the first new computer I ever bought, but I can't really justify keeping it since I replaced it. Also, since people have asked, I will say that I can load all my YouTube videos on it, and even sign it, if you are so inclined. And if you don't want XP for whatever reason, I can take that off, too. It's a new hard drive with a fresh install of everything - so this is in better-than new condition. I replaced the keyboard, maxed out the RAM, and put in a bigger hard drive. This this is better than the MacBook Air in everyway except thinness!

If you have any questions at all, feel free to leave a comment - email me - or contact me through ebay. Thanks for reading and happy bidding!
