I will take some pics for you, this was for my son for college as well. He changed his major so now he needs something else. This is wireless, blue tooth capabilities, online connection easily detected, I have Comcast and as soon as I went to the airport connect wizard it located my network and instantly went online. You can use any browser but the icon shows Safari, but windows programs work excellent on this mac laptop. Can plug in ethernet as well as a modem connection to the side ports, If you just want a mac for basic use this is perfect, but the looks of it is old, used a lot, scratches on the back, no stickers or anything, silver/grey color, screen size is 10" or 12" but lighting is great, tons of color choices and resolution can go to 1968x74 I believe, great picture and color, no blurs, can also use zoom in which is excellent, and screen division able to view more than one site at a time. Any questions you need I will be happy to assist.

No it works great as long as you keep the power cord attached at all times nothing is wrong with the battery but don't know why it won't power up without the cord. Cord is not that short but I purchased a cord extension and plugged it in to the side port and was able to sit on bed and the cord ran about 15 feet across the other end of room. can also purchase a wireless keyboard or just use the accessibility option and plug a microphone into the port and talk and the computer will follow your commands, to type, or close screens, change desktop or features it helps you with commanding your laptop so it works great. Easy to connect to a network or wireless. Blue tooth capabilities, can use it in public places as long as you can plug it in and airport wizard will detect best way to connect.

No it works great you have to use it though with the power cord attached at all times or it won't power on I am using it as we speak. It has a really good dvd player better than my HP so I use it all the time. I also have comcast internet so as soon as I start up the mac it automatically connects me online. It just is old, missing the g, h key , and some keys on the top right corner. you can still press the button though and the letters work, the battery cover on the back has old screws so I just tape the cover on for security, it does have the apple applications and if you want to know exactly what it has just email or comment back and I will list everything in case you are just interested in the hard drive my brother in law works as a Sac State Graphic Designer Professor, and he actually upgraded the programs for me while in college. It has a great processor and can install many new upgrades. So I would be happy to answer any questions you have regarding what is on the mac no problem.

Really! that makes alot of difference! I will be bidding for sure! What the most you will get for this if you were to sell it?

Nov 25th, 2010 at 5:06:52 PM PST by

100-150 because of the appearance not performance. I am willing to take whatever I am trying to get the money to purchase some electronic items my son want's for his college classes. So anything will help. If you need any more information I will be happy to help.

SORRY it took long to respond having some Comcast problems due to the rain let me know if you need any more info. Really need to sell this ASAP using money to purchase another Mac for my son in college. 2nd yr. now and he is needing a more advanced Mac now. This is what we gave him to start with as a Graphic Designer, but he changed his major to a Video Editor and needs different programs and a faster processor but this is wonderful for a basic user, it's appearance is what reduces the value unfortunately. So EVERYONE, BUY BUY BUY, X-Mas is almost here so I have to get this money quick
