So I finialy switched i had wanted to wait until the end of june but there were just too many good deals to not get a powerbook now. Plus in the apple store its just so damn tempting i just wanted to say how right all of you were about the powerbook over the ibook now granted the ibook is still wuite good and a better deal for me the 15in powerbook was the way to go and i'm loving it and the handyest just powerbook feature i have found is the backlit keyboard its quite handy for dark rooms. I just wanted to resure any college students out there that a powerbook is quite pimping and share my 2 week glea with my powerbook.
