There are many higher resolution 14 screens out there.
IBM has 1600X1200 14 panels, and I'm sure other
manufacturers do as well.
I have always been puzzled by this.

But what do you get with a 14 display with a 1600x1200 res other than

right
All depends on the work you do and the quality of your eyes.
Its the same issue with my 12 PowerBook. I zoom my word docs to 140% and
usually magnify web pages, but I still wouldn't trade it for 800X600 which
would have a similar effect, but force me to use horizontal scrolling on
most

As far as screen size go, does anyone here have a 14 iBook? Their
max resolution is 1024x768, same as the 12, right? Unless you got it
for the SuperDrive, why would someone want the extra weight and bulk?
Let me guess, you're young
Why get a larger one?
More processing power than the 12 model? a laptop that I don't have
to crouch in on my lap in order to keep it from falling off?
BTW, I wish I had sprung for that superdrive now, sure would have come
in handy a few weeks ago.

High resolution screens don't give much benefit
for working in Word or on the web
Strongly disagree!
Well, if you like me want to see the bigger picture while working
and not just zoom in on a small portion, and then out and in...
I write manuals in Word on my 15

I would imagine that 14 1024 x 768 LCD displays are pretty cheap these
days. As soon as they would go up, then that would mean a more expensive

a 14 LCD display with a

There are reasons for the larger screen at the same resolution, the

being that it is easier on the eyes.
I'll take easier on the back and shoulders carrying it around,
personally! But I guess some people leave them parked more than me...

Why can't they make iBooks display any higher resolutions, anyways?
Apple can - but keeping the iBook at 1024x768 is a way of
differentiating
the iBook from the PowerBook line. Already the line is seriously
blurred at
the 12 line.
