hey, how would you make your laptop if you had around 5.000$ to spend? The highest RAM and MEMORY obviously, but...is it worthy the Airport extreme Base station? Will I have enough with the 20GB iPOD?? Any Storage besides the ZIP 250 MB?? What about really nice speakers??

This is what I've thought of... but the airport Base Station... dunno...

• 1.33GHz PowerPC G4
• 2GB DDR333 SDRAM - 2 SO-DIMMs
• 80GB Ultra ATA drive @ 5400rpm
• SuperDrive (DVD-R/CD-RW)
• AirPort Extreme Card
• Backlit Keyboard/Mac OS - U.S. English
• iPod - 40GB
• AirPort Extreme Base Station (with modem and antenna port)
• Rechargeable Battery - 17-inch PowerBook G4
• 17-inch TFT Display


Thanks guys!!

I won't need to waint until the G5 comes out, right?/ It'll be fast enough... I guess. Plus that one will be more expensive (my wallet is not that deep!!) and it will take some time...
