I'm confused!
The posting title says 17", the description that follows says 15"
Both of these sizes can handle 2.0 GB of ram, so is it maxed out or does it only have 1.5 GB?
The machine ID of "PowerBook5,8" would indicate it is a  "PowerBook G4 (15-inch Double-Layer SD)".
It would be nice to know the size of the hard drive and if it is 100 GB, is it the 5400-rpm or the 7200-rpm model?
