[QUOTE="southside, post: 14111"] [b]thanks for reply[/b] trnmonkey41, thanks for the reply... I am thinking that is the case, and figure starting with the IBOOK makes sense in my case; and later I can get a souped-up IMAC for the home or something similar... some things I read about the new IBOOK make me wonder if it is OK - some say the resolution on the 14" model is the same as the 12" so it makes the 14" look washed out (others say that it makes it easier for older folks (like me) to read the screen))... heard that the keys come off, but others say NO - that they hold up even when used in a grade school environment... and others saying the memory limitation is key, however the new 1 GIG chip that is offerred by a 3rd Party vendor seems to put that one to rest... after reading up from various places on the Internet, I was thinking that it might be worthwhile to put out the extra dough and go with the Powerbook... question is if I get into some light graphics apps - playing with digital photos, creating a personal Web site, etc - would that still be OK/not dog_slow on the new P4 powered IBOOK? thanks, southside [/QUOTE]
