Sweet Yeti of the Serengeti! How much for a G4 PowerBook these days?

-edit-

Thread merge. Sorry, Harry, I approved them in the order I saw them :D

A pleasant surprise when I checked the news sites this morning and discovered this.

Re: MorphOS 3.0 released!
 

I paid $750 off ebay for my PB G4 1139 but... it's in absolutely mint condition, complete with all accesories, original box, inserts, etc. Some good deals for a nice one (i.e. not mint) are around $350-$450 on ebay... still quite cheap for great power in comparison with... other alternatives :-)

Cheers,

Dragster

And only five months after I traded away my aluminum Powerbook! How 'bout that.

Now maybe the great Amiga magazines can start covering MorphOS again! :)

SPLENDID news!!!!

Excellent news, even though I will probably never see or use it. Big boost for the community involved.

Good news. Any chance to see MorphOS on G4 iBook in the future?

Re: MorphOS 3.0 released - PowerBook G4 support and new pricing
 

Great news! I'll give it a try on my PowerBook G4 Aluminum 15'' A1106.

Is there a secret to burning the ISO?

I can't seem to get the CD to be recognized on my Powerbook5,8.

The DVD drive works, in fact, its new, it was one of the things I had to replace...

I burned it with UltraISO(Windows7) at 4x setting on 2 different burners...

I even tried using an external USB BR/DVD drive to boot. Can I not boot off of USB? I pressed the Alt(option) key... did a refresh...nothing

"Morphosboot" is able to be read on the external in OSX. The internal just rejects the disk.

EDIT:
just for the sake of trying something different i tried to burn a CD with my A1200 using MakeCD. Still won't boot :(
Thanks.

I can't find any specifications anywhere regarding Powerbook integration. Is this friendly toward all Powerbooks or only a certain few?
