MacWorld had a review of the 17" PowerBook that contained benchmark comparisions of all three PowerBook models.

Oh, how I hate it when vB code acts up!!!

17": 142, 0:51, 0.43, 0:44, 79.7, 7:01
15" 1G: 140, 0:53, 0:44, 0:42, 76.8, 6:59
15" 867: 124 1:00 0:51 0:49 65.4 8:03
12": 115, 1:04, 0:52, 0:57, 54.3, 8:41
15" 800: 104, 1:17, 1:05, 1:03, 55.3, 10:48
iB 800: 74, 3:15, 1:59, 2:32, 36.5, 16:25

Machine: SM, PS, iM, iT, Q, C4D, where:

SM: Speedmark 3.2
PS: Adobe Photoshop 7.0.1
iM: iMovie 2.1.2
iT: iTunes 3
Q: Quake III v.1030b5 framerate
C4D: Cinema 4D XL 7.303

Source: MacWorld Feb 2003 (15" 800, iBook scores), MacWorld June 2003 for the rest. Note that Feb 2003 scores for 15" are flawed as indicated in a later issue of MacWorld.

Another good resource is www.xbench.com. A well-designed but slow loading site. Scores have high st.dev.s but are helpful, real-life results.

Welcome to macnn.com forums and hope this helps.
