I have considered an iBook. Still out of my budget atm. I am saving for that
new Mac. So, until then I did go with the G3 tower. I found one upgraded for
a great deal, and I think the linksys card will work in it. It's enough for
my daughter and I can play with it until I can decide what *I* want. :-)
also, i've never had trouble with getting a connection all over the house
with my laptop. Even my neighbors could get on if I didn't have a firewall!

odd, why not get a wireless network? I've had an easier time on the
wireless networks I've set up than wired ones, they were over all
cheaper to set up, and easier as well. Plus the not having to run
wires and cables all over the place sure does help alot, even if it
is a desktop computer.
A very good question Brian.
The seller told me he had a wireless network in his premises and the
laptops sometimes had to be moved round to get in range. This is more
difficult with desktops. Maybe his wireless equipment wasn't as good as it
could be.
