Depending on your location, and timing should one be available, the higher

spec last model with FireWire ports is most valuable to a practical user...

And these may also cost a bit more (iBook G3/466 SE FireWire clamshell.)

• iBook G3 early (FireWire) - Technical Specifications


The auction or sell-now linked sites may or may not reveal any clues in this matter.


A few long-standing resellers may happen across these models, if they are in fine

condition, there likely are people they know who would be willing to pay much more

than your price level to get good working examples, w/ original accessories, + box.


After looking around, these aren't very evident in availability, you may wish to ask

members of a local Apple User Group; or those who repair older model Macs to

see if they know of anyone. Perhaps ask if for a commission, they'll call on you if

or when something you're looking for comes into their shop. A long shot, for sure.


Good luck in any event...! 🙂
