[QUOTE="trpnmonkey41, post: 14108, member: 279"] Honestly for what you are doing you dont need more than what the iBook has that you listed. That powerbook is an amazing machine but it may be a bit of overkill for what you are doing. The CPU difference will not make any major differences in what you plan to do. L2 cache is something that you probably will not see an improvement using unless you are testing for it. Bigger HD could be usefull but I am not sure how big and how many files you use. The 640 Ram in the iBook definitely seems adequate for your needs at this time. Firewire 800 has not really been impliminted by many hardware companies yet. Backlit keys are just some fluff to make it nice. Gigabit ethernet is great but its very rare that you find a network thats running completely cat6 where you can use it to your advantage. [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
