I suspect everything about the new ibook line will be a lot better than the current models. Likely updated form-factor, better screens without question (resolution and brightness), obviously much faster processors. Wait a few months unless you absolutely need a machine now.

But in the end it doesn't matter if you buy a new or two year old Mac. Every one is better than any (I do mean ANY) Windows system, and that's an absolute certainty. I will NEVER (ever) go back to Windows as a primary OS, regardless of the price difference.

I miss Textpad and one or two other apps. That's about it.

Sanity check: Is it it, or is it not, obvious that I've just shared two bottles of wine with my girlfriend? I think not. And my typing just seems sooo fluid.
