    B&W G3!

    i have one w/ a G4 in it. they are very easy to OC, i would suggest swapping the 400mhz cpu and pci cards in from your dead g3, and then OCing the cpu to 450mhz (i added an extra fan in mine to help w/ cooling, it fit in a pci slot). here is the over-clock guide, it is for a Yikes G4, but the...

    Possible Conquest Macbook Core Duo?

    they are actually $30, but still 1/2 the price of the other screens and you are lucky, the only mac things i got from friends was a nano w/ a smashed screen and a pb 140, they won't even sell me their broken macbooks!. i might get an iphone that only has 1/2 a working touchscreen though
