I'd go with the 17'' iMac. A bigger screen is always better!

for the same price, you get basically the same computer, except:

12" screen and portability or 17" screen.

i'd personally go with 12" and add an external monitor if you decide to want more desktop space. bigger screen is definitely nicer... but you can't use the screen unless you can take it with you! ;)

(i thought you were deciding between iBook and PB... now considering iMac too? gee... just pick one. :rolleyes: :D )
