[iBook] G4 PB or iBook?

[Dan Li]

Hi Albert,

Since you are a student, you might get education discount if you buy
your laptop from Apple Store online. You may save $100 for ibook or
$200 for powerbook.

I just bought my 12' ibook 3 weeks ago and am quite satisfied with it.
Not knowing too much about powerbook, I think ibook is a good choice
for a mac newbie as me. ;) Anyway, I'd like to choose a model with
bigger screen next time. It's kinda hard to type my term paper on
ibook with font size 12.

Hope this helps.

All the best,
Dan Li
