RARE Vintage 1997 Apple PowerBook G3 Kanga - And
Item History & Price
RARE Vintage 1997 Apple PowerBook G3 Kanga
This Kanga is a very rare find.
Not only are these a very limited edition G3 Powerbook; they are also a stop-gap laptop
computer between the PowerPC and the "G3 Series".
These were also "Steve Jobs'" FIRST Powerbook. They were built into it's predecessors 3400 body just to get the "G3" word out.
And, their lifespan was less than 6 months.
It is even more rare to find them working, EVERYTHING working. And, with alm...ost ALL of the accessories.
This comes with ALMOST everything it came with originally!
It has both the floppy and cd-rom, and they are working! I just installed Norton Utilities from the cd.
Even the battery holds a charge. (But, due to it's age it is not at all guaranteed to last. But the pics outside were obviously taken on battery power!)
And... IT IS LOADED with Photoshop, Illustrator, Norton Utilities, Word and MORE.
NOT TO MENTION.... The original packaging, the documentation, and the original stickers!
**PLEASE NOTE, This is a vintage computer. It is a miracle that it is still working now. There is no guarantee for it's future.
It is being sold as a "Collectors Item". It has bugs now just as it did when it was new. It was buggy then as well.
$5699 was it's original price in 1997 when it was labeled as the "Fastest Portable Computer Available".
