ibook vs emac

[scem0]

I think they are both equal until you add in the portability, and the
ibook is obviously more portable, so I think you should get the
iBook. I think it is a much better deal. You don't get very much
from a g4.

lol thats y im not getting an emac anymore lol
i never knew the 800 mhz 12.1" ibook had the new "total snow" case, i thought just the 700 mhz model did lol..

Well, the ibook is g3, emac is g4, one has a 17" screen, one has 12.1. brainpower usage here, watson!

ibook is portable, emac is not, ibook is cool, emac is not,
ibook doesnt have display probs, emac does...

I would get the $999 iBook because it is the best deal of the bunch
and then I would buy a bunch of RAM from 18004MEMORY.

and then I would enjoy it for the next 2 years

it is so nice to be able to sit on the couch and work on your computer. if you get an airport card, that makes it all the nicer

very true... Dragging a 50 ft long ethernet cord around the house
gets to be quite annoying. I have been wondering this a while:

Is wireless (airport) broadband much slower then broadband with
wires, if slower at all?

i dont want to get an emac now (cuz there seems to be ALOT more problems than i thought b4), and i have dialup internet so i'll probably be just in a few diff rooms (mainly infront of the tv relaxing hopefully cuz im tired of sitting infront of the computer desk typing up crud lol)
i'll probably purchase an airport card after i move (if move somewheres with high speed net access)
