Somehow, the hinge part of the lid of an aluminum G4 Power Book broke
for a friend of mine, and he is looking to by the outer lid, or
perhaps the whole display. Or perhaps a whole aluminum G4 sold for
parts. Does anyone have one??

Are there other newsgroups or forums where this post is more likely to
work?

Thanks for reading. :)

In a Macintosh news group not an Apple// news group.

Yep, there sure are. Try comp.sys.mac.hardware.misc OR csm.portables

Well, as others have said, not here in the Apple II group,
but, eBay is loaded with used barebones computers that you
can get very cheaply. Give that a try.

On Usenet, people usually abbreviate newsgroup names. "csm" in this
case is short for comp.sys.mac, so "csm.portables" would be
comp.sys.mac.portables. (This group is often referred to as "csa2" for
short, BTW. The 2 is necessary to distinguish it from other groups in
comp.sys that begin with an a - for example, the comp.sys.acorn
hierarchy.)
