I am now fully functional on my iBook and plan to give the iBook to my dad and upgrade to a powerbook.
Finding a GPS that would work on the Mac took a while because most GPS manufactures don't write USB to Serial drivers for their device but I did find one.
To help those that are looking for these solutions I am posting the links below:
RaymingTN200 GPS USB Receiver

Route 2004 USA mapping software for Macintosh (Europe also available)
http://www.66.com/route66/index.php
Reunion 8 Genealogy software
http://www.leisterpro.com/
Pro Tools LE
http://www.digidesign.com/products/le/
All of these items perform very well and I highly recommend them. All of the issues Ive been fighting over the last several years on my pc are now gone. Ive been converted.
Thanks you Apple!
