Sorry to hear about your break-in. I know that "violated" feeling.
But $1100 in insurance for a 12" G4 PB?! The street value of that is probably $250. You should be very happy about that if your premiums aren't jacked!
If you must get new/refurb, get a white macbook. It's great value if you aren't doing anything 3d that would require a dedicated GPU. If you are willing to buy used, get any of the C2D macbooks. If you look hard, you can probably find one in the $500 range.
