[QUOTE="nicholas, post: 38881"] The latest generation of powerbooks never get hot, simply warm to the touch. iBooks have longer battery life, but even my 17" powerbook with all guns blazing lasts about 2.5 to 3 hours, which is longer than most people usually use their laptops for without being next to a socket of some sort. What Aptmunich said about The Sims is correct. That game is fairly old so even the lowest end iBook could run it seamlessly. However, with your desire to run apps like Photoshop, Illustrator, and who knows what else, that is specifically the audience the powerbook is caterered for. The graphic professionals. iBooks are catered more for students, not just because of their harder plastic shell, but their lower price point, reached simply be shaving performance factors off the hardware. For you, daughter of Anna, get the powerbook. [/QUOTE]
