I disagree with this one. I almost always use my Pismo plugged in, but it's still much nicer than an iMac because I don't have to be sitting at a desk. I usually compute from my recliner. :-) Nonetheless, I do have a new battery for those times when I want to roam. I also disagree that you really need a 160 internal hard drive. It's nice if you save a lot of pics or audio files, but not really necessary. Myself, I have a nice big external drive that I use for backups and for archives of the big files that I don't have room for on the laptop. -- Ione Smith East TN Doberman Rescue -- http://www.etdr.org -- [email protected] -- 865-776-7636 Facts About Albino Dobermans -- http://www.whitedobes.com Speak truth to power -- old Quaker principle --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's G-Books list, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
