[P1] Ibook questions

[Ben Ing]

Actually, my Blueberry Clamshell (366) works fine as well. The key to 
having OS X run well is RAM ... I maxed out my Blueberry Clamshell to 
640k. While I only use it as a secondary computer running the iApps, 
email and Safari, for under $500, I was able to have a wireless 
internet terminal. (fwiw, I initially bought a Tangerine clamshell that 
was running OSX - the only reason that I went with the Blueberry was 
because I wanted to be able to attach my iPod using the FireWire port.
