I will be travelling to Japan in December to study for about 3 months and want to buy a used mac laptop. I would be pleased with an ibook G4 but if I could get a powerbook or macbook that would be fantastic. I can spend around $800AUD max (62,692 Yen). Can anyone help with:
- Where I can buy something like this. I know Akihabara has used mac shops but I can’t seem to find anything online (in English).
- What type of laptop I could get for this amount? (specs would be fantastic if possible)
- Are there many places I could find a used mac laptop in Akihabara or anywhere else? If it’s going to be really hard I will buy one here
- Would there be any worries with using it back here in Australia when I return?
I can get a G4 here in Australia but I assume I’d get a lot more for my cash over there. Because I’m having distress finding info I don’t know if I should buy one here or risk it over there.
Thanks in advance! Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I have a pc. but i need a apple used mac laptop by Christmas.

I feel that apple’s laptop design rocks but is is using the apple OS. Is it possible to reformat the com and install Vista instead?is it possible?Do you prefer a 13 inch or a 15 inch(macbook or macbook pro)?Which is better?Apple or windows?Apple’s OS does not have much software support, do you still reckon I should use apple?
