I would like to say that my descision was based on a thourgh examination of all the hardware issues and the relative merits of each machine against a wide range of competing laptops from many different manufactures and operating systems but that would be a total lie. The truth is it was ohh look ain't that cute intially for the 12 inch ibook but then the price of the powerboook recently dropped to within a couple of hundred more than the ibook so thought bugger that i'll have that one.

I thought the 15 inch too big and the 17 inch just a wee bit silly
