Go with the iBook. The lack of Altivec will be made up by the 400mhz
speed bump. The system busses are the same, but with a 512 L2 cache in
the iBook, 24mb more VRAM (32mb total) which will enable QuartzExtreme.
Good luck!

I've had a PB12 for a few weeks now.
My background is UNIX systems programming. If I take OS X and add
Apple's X11, CodeTek's VirtualDesktop, Fink, and a 3-button mouse,
I approach my productivity using an open UNIX desktop (FreeBSD or
Linux, x86 or PPC with X11 and Sawfish). There are naysayers

PB to by and I like to give him an honest cross section of experiences. I am
a very happy user of the 1GHZ TiBook but have no experience with the ne
