K, So I think my p75MHZ Toshiba Sattelite laptop is a tad to old to be a decent workstation for PIMs/Multimedia so Im in search for a new laptop.
With all that is in the news about Apple dropping motarola and moving over to x86, Would it be wise to invest in a iBook? They look so damn sexxy and i know a few distos have a PPC version, which is what i'd need for a mac (right?). Would all the programs you run need to be ported to PPC? or is it just the kernel/base that needs to be PPC?
1). Would it be wise to invest in an iBook?
2). How well does GNU/Linux run on it (lets say their latest model)
Hopefully there will be a mandy9 PPC release, as Mandy so far is my favorite

. And YES, the style of the hardware matters (at least to me) and, for the most part, they (apple) doesn't support that one company that has that speical key inbetween your crtl and alt key. (grr!)
Any suggestions would be great.
