Too many posters, and I don't like Rotosounds much to be honest (yeah, I saw the poster)
Not bad though, might get one of them Axioms for my set up at some point, when I have more space.
Personally I don't think to be a metalhead you have to like Iron Maiden, unless of course you like to hear galloping constantly...........

well, the iBook may have a buyer ($400 bucks too), but I think the PowerBook's staying for a little while longer. Grimace gave me a nice deal on it and I intend to use it in school for essays, web stuff, etc.
And even if I were to sell them all for one unit, I wouldn't get a MacBook. I personally hate the design and think it's flawed in many ways (don't start a war here, just saying). I'd probably spring for either a PowerMac G5 or a newer iBook or PowerBook. I'd ideally like a MBP in the future, but I have a few more sales to do in order to work up the cash.

Are you in high school or college? I don't like the macbook very much either, and decided to go with the macbook pro. Good luck!
H.S. student myself, and I feel an 800MHz G4 is more than enough for my needs (and 1GB of RAM).
The PowerBook feels about as snappy as my Dual 500MHz PowerMac (Had this one the longest, love it to death), which has 1.12GB and a Radeon 9000. I have used the new Intels and don't find the speed boost that impressive for the stuff I do, only the processor intensive junk that I rarely do. And even with that, rendering some PS filter at 4 seconds rather than 2.06 seconds isn't really going to bother me (fake figures, just giving an example).
Plus, when my computers run circles around my other friends' PCs, i get the added bonus of saying they're 5 or 6 years old

Ya, I'm in high school too, and I want to get through at least my sophomore year in college before I get a new one (I'm a sophomore right now), which is why I went with the macbook pro.
Funny you should say that, because thats what I plan to do with my next unit.
Hopefully a 1.67 PB or a MBP will grace the surface of my desk soon...

I actually disagree. Both of those are fantastic computers, and both have quite a bit of life left in them yet! I think you should never replace a computer unless it becomes unable to do what you want it to do.
My thoughts exactly.
It's becoming apparent to me that no one seems to be noticing my poor little G4 tower under my desk. That's the image displaying on my cruddy CRT (the Dell LCD is dying and shuts off randomly. I decided to go with something what works every time you turn it on)
Oh well, I suppose the TiBook and iBook are the stars of the show anyhow.
I love older iBooks and Mac laptops, they feel really 'used' and 'experienced', not that that actually makes any sense...
