Hi, I need to get a laptop for school and want to get an apple laptop. I was trying to decide between an iBook and a Powerbook, I read a bit and found out that powerbooks, have a slightly faster bus and cpu clock that make it a bit quicker. Not too big a deal for 500 bucks. I decide to go to the apple store and check them out in person for myself, Notice that the powerbook felt quite a bit more sturdy than the ibook. Might just have been the display model was man-handled. I want to get an intel Apple Laptop but i cant wait that long. So long story short is, im trying to assemble a list of reason to get one or the other and I figured I should get an opinion from Mac users themselves.
iBook:
Cheaper, so it will be easier to upgrade to the mac later.
Better battery life
Powerbook:
A bit faster
Sturdier
Anyone feel free to voice opinion
Im saving on the size and have a current balance of 570. So, I would have to wait significantly longer for the powerbook.
