I am also lucky enough to have a 320MHZ upgrade.

I totally agree. There is little incentive to upgrade to an iBook. A buddy
has one and it still seems bigger than the 2400 which with a Firewire and
USB PC card can do anything the iBook can. Plus way more such as..

-Connect to Scusi devices.
-Connect to serial devices such as printers newtons etc.
-Use PC card flash memory adapters for quick downloading of digital cameras
-I am sure the list goes on.

I cant believe how well it fits in between the old and new Apple, You can
use all the new Fire wire stuff and make iMovies play iTunes etc. as well as
use airport networks. And you can still use all your old printers, scanners
etc.

Cant say enough good about it. I doubt Apple will ever make such a future
proof machine. (and I bet they never thought this one would be)
