How much faster would the current ibook be than an older emac?

Taking into consideration the speed of the Harddrive in the ibook.

ie

1gthtz emac - 640SD ram - 5400/7200 HD v ibook 1.2 - 768DDRram - 4200rpm HD

Thoughts?
 
I reckon they'd be roughly the same. The iBook might be slightly better for processor-intensive stuff (I bet that's the first time anyone's said that before) such as converting music in iTunes. 🙂
