- 17" PB G4 1.67GHz DL
here's the deal. I was originally considering this (all prices w/ edu disc.):
15" G4 PB 1.67GHz 1GB RAM (2 slots) 100GB HDD 128 vRAM SD APP -> $2.653
now I'm considering this:
17" iMac G5 2GHz 1GB RAM (2 slots) 160 GB HDD 128 MB vRAM SD APP -> $1.630
+
12" G4 iBook 1.33GHz 512MB RAM 40GB HDD 32MB vRAM Combo APP -> $1.132
_________
$2.762
Price differenc: $109
all right... I don't need to be mobile all the time, i.e., I don't need to drag my LT to campus every day, just every so often. Hence, I'd use the PB as a desktop replacement rather than as a laptop. however, every so often I need to use a LT on campus and for travel.
I've been a winblows user for 13 years, I have zero practical experience w/ macs (except for messin with them @ the apple store or compusa.
putting the $100 price differnce aside (I can make up for that w/ selling the 2nd iPod), which one(s) would u go for?
any input/help is greatly appreciated! thanks in advance!
