Hey guys.

Here's the deal. I have a 1.5 GHz PowerBook G4 that is a 18 months old. It is a fine machine and does what I need it to. I also have a 350 MHz iMac G3 Blueberry that I don't use much. I am thinking of selling my PowerBook and getting a MacBook (black one). My other option is to sell my iMac and get a new iMac. If I did that, I'd get the 17" 2.0 GHz. I just want to upgrade one of my systems to an Intel model, because I'm not sure how long Apple is going to be churning out support for the G4.

So I'd like to know your thoughts..."upgrade" my PowerBook to a MacBook, or buy a new iMac?

Why not sell both and buy a MacBook Pro?

After they get upgraded to Core 2 Duo, of course.
