Well, as a University Student, I just picked up a tricked out 2300c to serve as a road warrior companion to my G4/400 desktop and my Newton MP 2100 (yes, I'm a gadget freak) To me, the duo makes for a darned fine companion machine to the G4. It was cheap, it's lightweight, and and has enough processing power to do everything that I need to do on the road. I can word process on it, read my email, do some basic surfing, and connect into my home network via a VPN link). Basically, I don't need all the processing power available on the new iBook. If I'm going to do anything that requires a lot of juice, I can just use my desktop, which is better suited anyhow. Anyway, that's my $0.02 Regards, Hans -- ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net! A listserv for users and fans of Mac subportables.
