[QUOTE="kahlil88, post: 833337, member: 47208"] I would have to agree - the PowerBooks had a faster FSB and more VRAM, but the maximum supported RAM was less than that of an iBook running at the same speed. Plus two-finger scrolling wasn't a hardware feature (but hey, that's what iScroll is for, right?). On the other hand, I find aluminum to be nicer looking than white plastic, and disassembling them is a less painful experience (I get kinda scared popping off the keys though!). [/QUOTE]
