How quick do you want to sell? Could list for $650 and wait it out, with some bargaining might get a little over $600. If you're in a rush, $575 should get you some attention.

You might double the RAM for relatively nothing (compared to what RAM cost when you bought the computer) making it much more appealing and perhaps somewhat more valuable.

How is the battery? If that has good life, the computer will be worth some more.

Is that the glossy or matte screen version?

It's a shame that it's hardly been used! I have the upgraded version (2.5Ghz, matte, 4GB RAM, 512MB level 2 video RAM, etc.) and it's a fantastic build.

These MacBook Pros should appeal to fans of silver keys everywhere!

Wow, this sounds like a pretty portable desktop, not sure I have seen a 15" desktop made after the G4 iMac 2003 model. ;)

I just purchased a brand new battery from Apple - It also has a glossy screen.
