[QUOTE="technologist, post: 70820, member: 4134"] I've basically given up on finding unbiased benchmarks with which to compare Macs and Intel/AMD systems. There are too many different ways to do it, and either way, someone will scream <I>"that's not fair!"</I>. Program A might run faster on computer X, while program B will run faster on computer Y. It's just too complicated, and there's too much bias on both sides. I think the iBook is a functional system, with all the features anyone could want. Solid and well made. Maybe not the fastest laptop, but fast enough. Real-world battery life in the 2.5-4.5 hour range, depending on what you're doing. [/QUOTE]
