[QUOTE="Aptmunich, post: 626855, member: 3850"] To be honest you'll want to stay away from any PowerPC notebooks, period. If you were looking at a desktop, the later PowerMac G5's are still quite fast, but the G4 based Macs are really getting a bit long in the tooth for anything more than light use. As others have mentioned the refurbs are a great deal... If you can't wait for one of those, buy a used Macbook Core2Duo (the original CoreDuo models had quite a few issues, so unless you get one that's had its logicboard replaced (like both of ours!), I'd avoid them).
