Thanks everyone for your input, it's greatly appreciated.
I know what some of you are say and i agree with it. But it doesn't
hurt to ask does it?
I use my B/W for designing and maintaining my websites, so i would need
something that can do that. I'd like to have OSX installed and
definitely not 10.1 as i have that on my 8500 using the Sonnet PCI X
software and boy do i really think 10.3 is a marked improvement!! I'm
in the process and trying to get 10.2, as i hear it much better.
The Toshiba laptop i have has been good to me, it has a Celeron 466Mhz
inside and it runs Window 2000 and XP pretty well. The laptop is great
for when i restricted to the bed, because of my disability i sometimes
find i have to spend time laid up resting. So having a laptop instead
of day time TV is a life saver. But after a year and a bit of Apple
Mac's, i would really like to go for an All out Apple setup. And the
PB165 isn't really the replacement laptop i had in mind for my Toshiba
:-P
I was told the Lombard 400 would be a more affordable laptop, compared
to an IBook or a Pismo.
I've seen the Pismo's going for £250-300 and i simply can't afford that.
Many thanks to everyone. I suppose for now, i'm better off sticking
with the Toshiba. Or some way down the road, selling the B/W G4 to fund
a new PC laptop
Regards
James

Right now I'm installing Yellow Dog Linux on an old Beige G3 which is a
LOT more work.

How easy/difficult was it getting ubuntu to work on the Pismo?
