It looks like if I sold my computer I could buy a 12" iBook which is what I originally wanted however if I'm going without Windows I will probably need something like a Powerbook G4 which will last a lot longer and will let me run apps faster...

I will either get a 600MHz iBook (12" screen) or a 667MHz Powerbook G4. I will probably need about another $2,000 :'( to get the Powerbook though.

Anyways, thanks for all the help. I will come back when I get my Mac or if I have any questions

THERE IS A GOD! I went to this store that sells Apple's and they have leasing. For $140 per month (Canadian ) I could get a Powerbook G4 leased for 3 years! My dad said we could right it off as a company expense!!!

Thank god! He said they just need to sort out some stuff...I'm gonna wait for the MacWorld Expo to see if anything new comes out (maybe an even better videocard in the TiBook) and then get one!!!

Oh yes! I am soooo happy

This definitely made my day

Since before I built my first computer (my first..I've had computers before) I was going to get one...but now...I really am
