[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1334121, member: 8287"] An iBook G4 (Especially that very last model with Bluetooth) was a great computer. I still have my iBook G4 1.33 12". It's nice but getting long in the tooth. The G4 just can't keep up with todays usage. It's still useable for basic use, but getting slow and will not run the last two versions of OSX either. I totally 100% agree with Razor. Get an Intel Macbook. If you are really broke, get the first one with just the Core Duo CPU. You can't run Lion 10.7 of OSX but Snow Leopard is just fine. It will still do everything a modern computer should do. If you can stretch the budget a bit more, go for a Macbook with a Core2Duo CPU and that way you can run the latest OSX also. Check Ebay and Craigslist. [/QUOTE]
