Cheaper and faster, but not anywhere near as slick.
I'm not really looking for slick, I'm looking for a workhorse.
And we're not talking about minor differences. 8x vs 16x is an appreciable difference. $100-$150 vs $280 is an appreciable difference. Not having to worry about extra heat generated inside the Powerbook is also important.
Video will be ripped to an external drive anyway, so everything won't be integrated (I have 17g available on my Powerbook drive but an entire 60gb available on an external FW drive). I'm not going to be wandering around with a video camera needing to make DVDs on the fly.
