I need to find a logic board for my poor little sad Powerbook...(whose keyboard & logic board & Dc in was killed by latte....sad way to go).... I've searched eBay & online....there seem to be so few of them....

Genius bar told me to fix=$1200....thats just a complete replacement, no help at all. I actually cried when they told me.
I can't afford much! (still paying on the PB!!) ...trying to find one for $300. Laptop guy in Mpls says he will install it- but he's already told me to buy a 1.33 logic board (ebay- got it for $70 and now will have to sell it after finding out it's not compatible) duh...I'm the newbie here, he should have known that. So....any help.....please? I'm a visual artist who uses my Powerbook a LOT....and I just have to get it fixed. If I didn't love my Powerbook so much I'd just give up, but someone has got to know some things here....right?

My Powerbook:
12" G4 1.5Ghz 512/80G hd/etc.etc.
Everything else is fine. Tiny spot of corrosion on the logic board & DC board where it plugs in. I need some information I can trust!
