I believe LowEndMac.com has overviews of essentially every Mac. As usual, at these speeds & higher, the lowest bandwidth device, which determines the overall throughput, is likely to be the carbon-based unit attached to the keyboard. ;-) Seriously, I *think* that the G4 in the 12" PB has a larger L2 cache. I think it may also have the better graphics card, but I'm not sure. I'm sure there will be a few comparisons done -- check on xlr8yourmac.com and see if they've got anything yet. You'll probably get a larger volume of informed opinion if you post this question over on the 'G3 or better Powerbooks' list. - Eric. -- Eric Strobel ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ===================================================================== I like animals.
