I copied my ibooks contents over to my 15" powerbook. Can I keep this in the powerbook's users folder until I get an external? If not, where should I have put it on the powerbook? Thanks for any help.

yeah.. you can keep it anywhere on the PB. but if you did copy it, but it wouldn't make a perfect copy, and if you copied all of it back, it wont boot, or you will have problems.

Best way to do this is run MIGRATION ASSISTANT and select to copy user .... all preferences will be transfered as well!
