Yes, although I have never used Bootcamp.
I use Parallels and VM Fusion to run Windows (Vista, XP and 2000).

Screen size = 13.3"
I would need to check the original receipt, but I bought it ~ August/September 2006, which makes it about 1yr 9 months. Applecare extends the full warranty to 3 yrs (2009).
No problems at all with it . If I did not want more RAM, I don't think I would bother changing it at the moment.

I'm interested.
When will it be available. (no urgency required)?
Is the case scratched at all?
Cheers

Case is in excellent condition.
Time frame is likely to be 2-3 weeks - depending on work commitments.

Spoke to soon - seems like the hard drive is dying. :(
It's under warranty, and I can still boot into OS X (backup) on an external firewire drive.
I was toying with the idea of installing a 320Gb one so this will be happening sooner than I planned.
So, if I do sell it, it will have new 160Gb drive.

UPDATE:
New macbook, extra RAM and new 302Gb hard drive ordered this afternoon. [All now arrived.]
Potential buyers can have a choice of spec.
1. RAM = 512Gb, 1Gb or 2Gb.
2. Hard drive = 50Gb (used), 80gb (new) or 160Gb (warranty replacement), or no hard drive (one guy already has a spare 120Gb hard drive).
I am hoping to retrieve as much data as possible off the old drive next week.
**The hard drive has passed the Seagate Tools tests, so I have reformatted it and re-installed Leopard and downloaded all the updates. It seems to be working fine.**

This is now for sale for the best offer over £375.00 (excluding delivery, which will be at cost).
In order to stop the matter from continuing too long, I thought it would reasonable to set a deadline of midnight tonight.
