Of course, hostBrian is right, a link *should* be made from a wider perspective than whether the site or link page has PR, but to answer your question directly: Linking out to a site with less or no PR doesn't harm the page or site that links out, but a link back from a PR0 page gives them nothing, so webmasters are often reluctant to trade links unless the link back page has PR.

That said, seeing PR0 on the toolbar does not necessarily mean the page has no PR. Google doesn't report PR for months at a time, so a newer page may well have PR but not show it in the toolbar. If you look at other pages on the site, and the internal linking structure, you may get an idea of what PR a newer page actually has.

Cheers, MJ
