My Ibook spends much of its time on the computer desk in the back room which is near my bed and its connected to my Panasonic RXED50 which has an Auxilary input though I plan to get a bluetooth keyboard as its not too easy typing on an Ibook whilst lying in bed and there's always the possability that the Ibook may go for a slide onto the floor which wouldn't be too healthy for the machine. The Ibook also spends allot of its time sitting on this authors lap whilst he lounges comfortably on his couch in his lounge room, its a great machine to type on as I've already mentioned though I sometimes wish the battery life was a little longer, when I'm sitting on the aforementioned couch the Ibook has to be run on its battery as I don't have an AC wall outlet near me. Oh and I forgot to mention, thank goodness for the airport facility.

You know I was considering getting one of those new Mac Books, but I sure wouldn't mind having an Ibook here as a secondary machine I could sit on my deck or take on the road.

Hi Tim,

A small correction, I purchased my I-Book G4 last January and the processor
is of course not Intel but the speed is 1.33 with a 12.1 inch  display.

Take care,

John but a little side note, I have had no issues with the I-Book,  runs
very well even on 512 megs of ram which will be upgraded to 1.5 gigs soon.

Hi,

The iBooks ran either a 1.2 GHz or 1.42 GHz G4 processor.  They were
not INTEL processors and therefore don't run XP like their MacBook
cousin.  they were nice little units with the same processor power as
the MacMini and many a person on this list have had great success
with these machines.

Later...
