Good point about the external HD - no matter how big you internal HD you will still need another for audio - and in the case of a laptop that will need to be an external drive. Towers (such as PowerMacs) can house a second or more drives.
The one point that I have to make is this: Now that ALL of Apple's notebooks are G4s, there really are only minor differences in the machines - Apple will put a little more POW! into the PBooks and hobble the iBook a bit to protect PBook sales, but a G4 is a G4 and that is that. My wife has a 900Mhz G3 iBook, and it can't even begin to keep up with my PBook. Her's is not a slow Mac, it's just that the G3 has trouble handling Panther. It did seem to move a little swifter running Jaguar. So, if you NEED a PowerBook for it's FireWire/External Display/RAM capacity/etc then get one. If you want a super cool, nimble fast Mac with the base feature set - the iBook will more than suffice. But I still think PowerBooks rule. lushbudget
