L-R: 2400c/180 (OS 9.1), 1400cs/117 (OS 8.6), iBook/466 (OS 10.2.5), TiBook/800 (10.2.5)

Wow the ibook looks huge amidst all the others... You should have used a panoramic photo that spanned all of the screens -- that would be pretty cool (but maybe too much work).

I have to say that the iBook (w/Airport) is the most rugged of them.

I feel like I can just grab it and head out to the backyard and not worry as compared to my TiBook and how I need to be careful. It is a big monster, but it sure can put up with the abuse. I used to have a Lombard at the same weight but the iBook is nearly kid proof.

Your army is very impressive but otherwise would be so mighty if you add the bigAl!

Now that would've been cool, but I agree that it would be a decent amount of work.

Indeed, a PowerSlab would finish out that collection, but it's still impressive. My friends and I were just talking about doing this. We realized we've got a pretty decent spread, from Lombard's to PowerMacs to a PowerSlab. Hmmm...might be a project for this weekend.

That picture spanning idea was a good one. I tried a few different pics, but it's late and this looked okay.

We should have a contest to put stuff on the screens... The possibilities are endless.

Hmmm, I think that Sponge Bob movie is more one that my husband should see than my 5 & 9 year old boys who are big Spong Bob fans! I will never again be able to watch Sponge Bob Square Pants cartoons with my boys with the same naive viewpoint!

//Must go get my car washed now...

P.S. I made Spongebob green because the carwash chemicals couldn't have been good for him!

Hahahahahaha!!! That site is too funny. For a while, I thought it was for real. Wait, it isn't, right?

I've owned a fair number of 'books over the years:

PowerBook 540c
PowerBook G3 233/2G/64MB/12" (Wallstreet)
PowerBook G3 400/20G/256MB/14" (Pismo)
PowerBook G4 400/20G/256MB/15" (Ti400)
PowerBook G4 550/30G/256MB/15" (Ti550)
PowerBook G4 800/40G/512MB/15" (Ti800)
PowerBook G4 1Ghz/60G/1G/17" (17")

I've just never had more than one in my possesion at a time (I had to sell the old one to afford a new one). All of those together would make for a killer picture.
