They are simply great, quiet, cool, powerful (at least the G4 one) machines :-)
The new AlBooks DO have mic-in and line-in again! Stay away from nvidia on any non-x86 platform, you will never get a decent driver for those graphics-boards, whereas ATI-drivers at least offer good 2D-performance on newer chips and eventually will offer full OpenGL-support. (read: ATI is more helpful than nvidia, though their support of the dri-project lags a bit behind their x86-binary-only-drivers) Have fun* Niklas
