Looking for a price on a dual 1.8 with 728 mb ram, 160 gig hard drive with airport extreme.

RKM, it would be helpful if you posted a few more details, perhaps, about the condition, whether bluetooth is included, and I guess that computer would be out of warranty?

Also, with this new forum fancied up so nicely, perhaps you could post a picture?

Thanks!

From everymac.com, between $700 and $1000 USD (for a new one).
So I guess you could get pretty much the same price in CAD for a used one (in good condition).

As always lots of variation on price. Last year a local fellow we deal with was selling off some G5 1.8DP, 160GB, SD, 512mb ram off lease machines for $600 cash cdn no taxes.

I would always check your local shops, in our case Beam Echo which I usually use as my high price yardstick,

BeamEcho | Pricelists - Used Apple Hardware (http://www.beamecho.com/pricelists/used_apple/)

MacDoc who is usually lower priced than Beam Echo,

MacDoc.com (http://www.macdoc.com/)

the classifieds here, craigslist and kijiji as well as doing a local search on eBay.
