I really want to have a mac that runs both OS'. So I am considering buying a cheap Macbook, and maxing out the ram. But the parents aren't Hot on the idea of spending $1,000. So they say I have to wait until after my birthday and Christmas. But instead of that, would it be possible to run a stripped down version of XP on my 1.33 Ghz iBook G4 if i put more RAM in it?

You can't actually run windows on a power pc mac. You can run an emulated version of windows however, via microsoft's virtual pc, but its compatibility is limited, and it's dern slow (since it's being emulated).
