So I think I'm going to hold out for a while or a year before getting into the intel line of macs. I still however will make the switch and get either an iBook or a Powerbook to tide me over in the meantime (can't complain since both are great notebooks). My question is on the iBook RAM. I would say I'm more a casual user than an intense one, but I wanted to know if there is a big difference between 1 GB Ram on the iBook and 1.5 GB Ram. I would think that for the iBook 1 GB Ram should be plenty. Are there really enough advantages to getting 1.5 GB Ram to justify the price? Thanks. Also, if you are buying RAM on your own, do you recommend buying the DIMMs from Apple or going to a third party and getting RAM from them. Thanks
