[QUOTE="KLank, post: 29933"] Well, I've never seen a case where a couple of years down the road where someone has said they wished they had gotten the slower machine. Of course, I've been using Intel based machines all my life and just swiched to Mac, but I can't imagine that it would be much different. Although, with the price difference you may be happy with the iBook for years and enjoy the extra money now. You mentioned that you would be going with 512MB of memory. Just remember that for the cost of a 512MB upgrade from Apple, that you could get a 1GB upgrade through a company like Crucial. So which ever model you choose get the memory yourself and you can save money that way. I'm sure you'll be happy with either the iBook or the Powerbook. [/QUOTE]
