hey everyone -

Re: when you say screen resizes and scrolling ....

so you are telling me that on a G3 ibook... let's say if you have a 35 page document in MS WORD ....

if you scroll down or page down, it does not do so instantaneously? i have to wait for screen redraws and pauses?

and on a G4 Tibook it would be no problem?

thoughts?

I have both an iBook 600 and a G4 iMac, and yes, using Word is slower on the G3. Scrolling, either through documents or on the Web, does take a bit longer. But it's not horrible. My iMac was in and out of the shop for about two weeks, during which I was using my iBook as my primary computer, and while I did notice a difference, it wasn't enough to make me not want to use it.

to judge Adobe just because of acrobat shows extreme lack of analysation.

IMO I could not live on the comp w/out Photoshop
