Hi Folks!
My name is Anthony, and I'm in the market to buy a new Mac. I already own a 12" iBook 900 MHz, and was looking forward to buying a new Powerbook.
When I visited my local Mac Dealer, he told me that he thought that the 14" iBook (superdrive) would be much better, and less expensive. He boiled it down to the 14" iBook (superdrive) has pretty much the same specs as the 12" pBook (superdrive) with a better screen. So, he got me thinking... is it really better?
This is where you guys come in, has anyone had this issue? BTW, I'm a DJ, and I just use my iBook basically as a CD recorder. My future plans is to start making movies too, will the iBook be able to handle it?
At the moment, I'm leaning towards the iBook, because for almost the same amount of money that I'd spend on the pBook, I could get a Mini too (for my parents).
In a nutshell, whatcha guys think:
14" iBook superdrive & a Mac Mini or 12" pBook superdrive?
Thanks in advance for reading my thread, and any advise you can share!
Peace!
Update: I decided to get a 12" PB 1.33 refurb from the on-line Apple Store, Thanks for everyones reply!
