Any used Mac's out there?

I know this is probably blasphemy on this forum, but does anyone have a used Mac (iMac or laptop preferred, at least 800MHz) that they would be willing to trade for either a Toughbook or an Itronix? I have a few things I wish to use the Mac for and really do not have the cash right now to buy one. I would really like to find a 17" G4 iMac or a Mac Book if possible. Let me know what you have and what you may take in trade. Thanks guys (and gals!).

Rob, by any chance would you have any 32-64Gb iPod Touch 3g's laying around? Also, I was looking more in the $100-150 range for a G4 iBook, which there seem to be enough of on Ebay.

I don't think I have any Ipods. I will check though.
Thanks

I might be wrong but the Ipod Touch does not come with 3G, only wireless. I do have the Ipod Touch 64Gig.

What I meant was 3rd generation, not to be confused with the iPhone which does have 3G. Somehow I just managed to score a 3G 32 GB for $117. I was looking at my daily list on Ebay, and this one had about 1 minute 30 seconds left on the auction so for giggles (and not expecting to win as there is usually a last second sniper), I put in $117 and that was the high bid (the last one being $102). As some have said, it sometimes pays to be more lucky than good....

How would you feel about a G4 Powerbook 17", highesst spec one ever built?
It has some cosmetic flaws but works fine and has a new batter + genuine AC adapter. It also has a blu-ray drive burner, though it's effectively useless for playing blu-rays as the G4 is too weak.
Specs is 2GB ram, G4 1.65Ghz, Radeon 9700 128MB. I can throw in a leopard install disc and iwork suite if that helps. I'm looking for a new toughbook, but I actually like this mac for certain tasks, so I'd be hardpressed to part with it for anything less than $225, maybe a LITTLE less if you drop an extra or two, but not much.
Let me know
