[QUOTE="hypermaster, post: 419949, member: 33064"] To add to this... i've been meaning to shift to a MAC since a long time... One of my friends is selling his Powerbook 1.67, 15" / 2GB Ram / SuperDrive / 100GB HDD etc..extra charger, mouse, bag .the whole hog & its selling for almost the same price of a new white mac book (the mac book will of course have 120GB HDD but 1GB Ram & an Intel processor) My use would be more for work & music & movie watching (while on the go)... lots of document / pdf / excel / ppt editing & viewing. I also like to dowload & burn movies & edit them. The only thing i know i cant do on a MAC is upgrade my blackberry :( Anyways my question is...should i go in for the powerbook or the mac book? BTW the powerbook is in supurb condition. Also how slow is VIRTUAL PC, if i need to run windows (though i might now, as i always have access to a Windows PC at office & home) [/QUOTE]
