Hi everyone.

i wanna get an ibook (possibly for christmas or march my birthday) im not sure which one i should get. i either wanna get a clamshell g3 or a whit g3 ibook.

i want one that will give the best performance and will last long.

but heres the catch. i need to get one for under £100 or ive i wait (which i probably wont) untill march under 150 - 200. (UK sterling)

any info would be greatly appreciated.

Don't buy a clamshell. They are too old, slow, heavy and the resolution of the screen is too low to run Mac OS X (only 800x600). They more limited in RAM as well. Get at least a 500 (or preferably 600 or 700mhz white iBook).
