FS - MacBook 2.1ghz, 4gb, 120gb(7200rpm) - $500 shipped

This MacBook has been my faithful companion for nearly two years now, and I 
have always taken very good care of it. It has always been protected in a 
padded sleeve when in transit, and it has never been dropped or abused in any 
way. It shows very nicely, and could easily be mistaken for new, except for the 
very light abrasions visible on all but the most pampered white MacBooks.  I 
recently had the keyboard and palmrest replaced by Apple to remedy the front 
edge plastic chipping that is so common in this vintage MacBook, so the 
keyboard/trackpad/palmrest have had only a few days light use since brand new 
to remove my data and install the current operating system.

This MacBook has only one flaw, and that is that the PRAM does not hold if the 
laptop is turned off AND disconnected from AC power. I replaced the PRAM 
battery, but the problem persists. I have not had any problems with this 
because I just "sleep" the computer, and never turn it off except when a 
restart is required for a software update, then I just make certain I am 
connected to AC power. The few times I have powered off the MacBook without 
having the AC connected, when I turned it back on, the date was incorrect, but 
since I have the MacBook set to get correct time via internet, as soon as I got 
an internet connection, the date and time corrected itself.  During the time 
that the date was incorrect some older calendar reminders popped up that I 
simply dismissed, and that was the extent of it, so not a big issue, and easily 
avoided, by having it plugged into AC when turning it off or re-booting, and 
"sleeping" the computer for transport. I am not the original owner of this 
MacBook, but I have owned and used it extensively for nearly two years. The 
PRAM issue was present when I acquired the MacBook, and no other issues have 
appeared in the time I have owned it.

All in all, a very nice Lion-ready Intel MacBook; fast, clean and ready for a 
new home and years of continued service. I would be keeping it myself, except I 
recently got a great deal on a unibody polycarbonate MacBook, which is now my 
new companion.
