Well i just got the machine you're talking about and it really rawks!
i would generally agree with the 'get the best you can afford now' idea, but seriously - the difference between portable low-end macs and high-end ones isn't that huge. my ibook will maybe be out of date a month or two quicker than your powerbook (1,33GHz?) but in 2 years current laptops will have a 3Ghz G5 processor anyway so what difference will a measly ,33 Ghz make? Conclusion: Get a powerbook if you can afford it. If not get a maxed out ibook (go for the 60GB hdd!) But get a mac, i've just switched from 16 years in windows-world and it really is a very pleasing experience. Everything just works, no hassle! |
