[QUOTE="WilliS, post: 30593"] tough choice... depends on what you want... i have a 12 inch ibook... and i can tell you, sometimes when you are looking for a laptop, thats exactly what you want.. a laptop...not some monster of a computer.. ya know? i see some people with these dell's with 17 inch square monitors on them...it looks like they have a desktop in their lap... not really what i personally would be looking for in a laptop you may like the bigger size...but i prefer smaller actually, when it comes to laptops.... now desktops..thats another story ;) if you want to know how they will run, i would say they will be fairly similar in speed... depending on ram.. your powerbook will run faster if you want to run games off it... (64mb video) powerbook is a more sleek design i think... if i could get my ibook to look like a powerbook, i would do it any day! :) they are sexay! but if you dont have a preference, it wont matter. powerbook: -smaller screen (a plus for me) -slightly faster -better video card -thin, sexy, metalic design -more expensive ibook: -larger screen -slightly slower -32mb video card -white glossy design (eh... ok.. but not my favorite..im really digging their brushed aluminum designs) -cheaper mmmmm my gut just goes for powerbook all the time... i would much rather have that... but im a person who likes things that look as good as they perform.. (maybe thats why im an apple user to start) you wont regret either one... just remember that much i buy apple products for mainly 3 reasons: -simplicity in usage -stability in OS -power with sex appeal [/QUOTE]
