Hello.
I'm going to sell my G3 Powerbook (333Mhz) and buy a more powerful laptop. The problem is that I can't decide if I should buy a 600Mhz G3 iBook or a 550Mhz G4 Titanium. The Powerbook is just slightly more expensive but the iBook comes with a combo drive... I use Logic Audio Platinum 4.81 and record quite a lot of audio. I want to get the Titanium because it has got a G4 processor but does that really make up for the cheaper price+CDRW?? Thanks, Mikael |

Good idea to follow when buying computers.... always buy as much power as you can afford. I was looking at a G3 700 ibook as well but decided that buying a refurbished G4 was the better bet for the money and i happened to find a refurb g4 with combo drive, 256mb ram, 20gig for $100 more than brand new 14' 700 ibook. So keep an eye out for refurbs (they still have warranty) and you may find one has combo drive and in your price range.
