My son uses GB extensively.  Here's his input:  It would run better  
on a Powerbook with a similar processor speed, for example 1.33 Ghz  
Powerbook G4. GB requires certain hardware features that runs better  
on a Powerbook that a iBook simply doesn't support (L3 Cache, higher  
front side bus, faster RAM).
