    The iBook G4 looks like the older G3 models, however incorporates the G4 chip which will offer screaming performance over the G3. The current G4 iBook is just as powerful as past PowerBooks, but doesn't include all the extras such as integrated Bluetooth or a backlit keyboard. However for the money you will certainly see a lot of bang for the buck!

    I figured if someone was going to revive a year-old thread, I might as well go revive the oldest thread still on the list :p
