[QUOTE="mynameis, post: 58336, member: 6607"] I concur. My Dell laptop is a 1.3ghz but it can do everything I need. I think 12in iBook is the way to go, the screen is big enough to see and the actual number of pixels that the screen can display is the same as a 14in. The 12in iBook is small and lighter, thus more portable which is a plus. If you want a cheap external HD, just buy an internal hard drive and then get an USB enclosure for it, watch sites like slickdeals.org and you can find some great deals on hard drives. Just looking at newegg.com prices, you can get a USB 2.0 enclosure that is decent looking and white to match your iBook for $31 and then you can get a 200gb hard drive for $110, Total $141 and you have a huge external USB Hard drive. You can find much better deals on hard drives if you just watch the deals. edit: I thought the 12in G4 iBooks came with a minumum hard drive of 30gb? [/QUOTE]
