Broken 12" G3 iBook for Parts (includes video adapter, box)

For sale is a selection of parts from a non-working G3 700Mhz iBook.

The video chip failed (ball-grid solder array fault) and it has been scavenged for parts (the keyboard, and power adapter are gone - everything else is still there)

When the video chip became unseated everything else was working (backlight etc.) so there should still be plenty of useable parts for anyone attempting to resurrect one of these that has stopped working for other reasons. Unless you know how to reseat a ball grid array solder connection and have the equipment to do so this one isn't repariable.

It is the 700Mhz, 128M RAM 20G HD Combo drive model

It includes:

The iBook carcass as described
2 batteries (one lasted less than 20 minutes, the other might go for an hour - but that is more than a year ago)
Video adapter (VGA to iBook connector)
Grey custom made soft cloth slip case for 12" iBooks
Original Software disc pack (OS X 10.2, applications OS 9 etc.)
128M SO-DIMM (in addition to the onboard RAM)
An original iBook Box with packing material

Asking $75 OBO
