Exactly. That's what I was trying to get across by comparing my Ti to my
friends Pismo. 'Elegantly' is a much nicer way to put it. :) The good thing
is Tom and Lisa now know there is a third option. 500MHz G4.
What are you running the display at? 800x600 millions or 1024x768 thousands.

A cheap suggestion to protect your ibook in the future is to buy one of
those keyboard protectors (e.g., iSkin); a thin film that sits on top of
the ibook's keys. This way, if liquid spills over the ibook, it won't go
inside.

Someone will probably disagree with me but I say go for the G3 if you
want to use Jaguar or the G4 if you want to use Panther. Panther is
more G4 optimised...
If you want to use Photoshop or apps like that, go for the G4..
