Re: Notebook reccomendations



One more piece of advice...if you're "Thinking Different", wait another
couple weeks if you can.

The rumor mill is thick with a possible announcement by Steve Jobs at
MacWorld in SF on 1/14. One of the rumored introductions is a new
iBook, using Intel architecture.

You might just be able to run Mac OS X and Windows in the same box.

BTW...I typed this on a 2-year old iBook with a wireless internet
connection. It's a great machine.
