Yesterday was my lucky day...

Yesterday really was...
Yesterday i went to the mall called Huai Hai Lu. and i found they were selling an old PowerMac G5!
But you dont know how much it was...
I asked him how much it was and he said 299 HK$ and I was like " :wtf: ". I thought he was joking at first but he was serious!
So i bought it and brought it home and installed a burned version of leopard on it.

What a Great deal. :yay:

What is a Powerbook? How much does it normally cost? And how much does 299 HK$ equate to in USD's?

About 38 USD. New ones are about $700-1000 (USD) I think. I already forget what Google showed as prices.
