The screen IS bigger, but the resolution is the same.
I used to have a 2300c but sold it. I've since gotten a 280 (I'm typing
on it now!) and for what I do it's just as fast if not faster.
I use mostly 68K programs (Word 5.1 especially) and the 2300c seemed
sluggish. I think SpeedDoubler would have helped.
The 280 runs 8.1 nicely. If you need to run PPC-only programs the 2300
is your only choice. If not, it's not a huge speed improvement.
