[QUOTE="Padawan, post: 17768, member: 273"] The G3 will be perfect for what you describe. With Apple's current discounts on them, I think they are one of the best deals going. In addition to the activities you describe, I do word processing, spreadsheets, manage music (rip, burn, download, etc.), watch movies, and more, and my 14" G3 never gives me a problem. My only suggestion would be to purchase a 512 MB RAM chip once you get it. Maxing-out the RAM never hurts, and it isn't very expense either, especially with the money you'll be saving. In reference to the comments about G3 Snow's having problems - if anything, the things I've heard/read indicate that Apple's quality has been slipping somewhat (15" PB, new IB, etc.), and that the previous generation iBooks and PowerBooks are more durable than the newest ones. How they compare to the Clamshells, I can't say since I've never owned one (alhough I'm in the market if anyone wants to sell one), but I think you'll find few quality issues with a G3 iBook.

How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
