Powerbook 520c

Powerbook 520c Hardware 3 posts Feb 16, 2009 — Feb 16, 2009
Went to the Recycler again, this time I picked up a Powerbook 520c, for free.

It's in nice shape, except for the top cover, which is badly scratched. There's also a small hole in the top (The only reason it's scratched/Holed is because it got literally thrown into a recycling heap)

Did the LCD Survive?

Well, the LCD did survive, though a 2-centimeter strip on the bottom right corner behaves strangely (it sort of "mirrors" the video next to it). It goes away away if you flick the bezel beside it :p

Only the lid is in bad shape. The rest is in good condition.

It works just fine, and boots right into System 7.5, and has 16MB of RAM, as well as a 160MB Hard disk. Not a bad deal at all.
