Which is better - an ibook g4 or a macbook?

motorguy

I am selling an laptop that was used by a work colleague but is no longer required. It wont power on and i have it listed on ebay as 'spares or repair'

However, i listed as an ibook g4 1.8ghz, 60gb, 1gb ram etc.

I have had it pointed out by a very observant ebayer that its actually a macbook.

Unfortunately the auction ends in an hour so i cant end the listing, but my question is, will it be better for the seller if its a macbook, ie, is it the newer one? Obviously not so good if he specifically wants an ibook, but if as a macbook its worth more, i'm still happy to let it go for what it makes?

I dont want the buyer to think i'm trying to pull a fly one if an equivalent ibook is worth more...

The MacBook line actually replaced the iBook line, so yes the MacBook is newer and should be more up to date. There is a potential issue if the buyer wanted specific iBook parts that are not contained within a MacBook, but I am unfortunately unfamiliar with the internal workings of the two machines so can't directly comment on how likely that is. Either way you are not advertising something that is a newer version of what you actually have, so you don't need to worry about that.
