I was thinking about getting a new book because i'm beginning to feel how slow my book is getting. If a faster drive will make a significant boost in speed, maybe I'll just replace the dying HD.
Actually, I've replaced my dead 12GB HDD with a new IBM/Hitachi 40GB HDD with 8MB Cache. My Pismo 400 only has 192MB (I want to eventually get 1GB), but with the new HDD, Jaguar feels noticeably faster.
It really depends how fast your machine needs to be. The Pismo is still a very reliable machine and the only PowerBook, IMHO, without much cosmetic problems (unlike the Ti series).
