I was just reading that the 12" PowerBook has heat problems. Some, not all, can get extremely hot and there is no remedy except returning it for a different unit.

I get the impression the G3 is to the G4 as the Celeron is to the Pentium - keep that in mind re. price vs. performance.

A colleague of mine recommends the new Sharp laptops - very small in size and a value. Windows of course.

To me, OSX is more like Windows from the interface to the Terminal prompt. I've had some issues with OSX not deleting apps and I had to use sudo commands. Like any new OS, it's got things to get worked out.
