What airline are you flying on???
I've never had trouble with any laptop (Compaq, IBM, or beloved Apple)
on any airplane seat.
Most tray tables not only fold out, but then also SLIDE forward. The
Wallstreet fits fine (as did the leviathan iBook 366 I had).

If I couldn't sell it and it was the only machine I could have, that would
be a very difficult choice since the 280 has no wifi possibility, and that
is something I use frequently.
If the choice was changed to a Wallstreet or a 2400c, I would grab the 2400c
in a heartbeat.

Nah, too big, too bulky, too heavy. I'd even take an
old 2400c over any 14 or larger laptop. iBook wins
easily on handiness. Remember, even the most powerful
computer in the world is absolutely useless if you
left it at home because you didn't want to carry it.

The iBook 500 has a slower bus then the Pismo which is one reason it is
faster. I have a Pismo 500 and an iBook 600 and the Pismo is more user

If it is a 12 iBook you are comparing (I think all of the 500-700MHz were,
though I may be wrong), then that would easily win the choice for me. The
Pismo, like all other PowerBooks since the 2400 (current 12 excepted) is
just too danged big and heavy.
