About a month ago I started shopping for a new Notebook. I was in a local computer store(Microcenter) looking PC Notebooks when I happened to wonder into the Apple section. I started playing with the 15" PB and was immediately at home with the OS. I am an avid user of Linux/Unix at both work and at home. I went home and started researching the Powerbook series of computers. Within 2 hours I had placed my order online for the 17" PB(MacConnection). I feel my home network will now be complete. Windows 98 wireless notebook, Windows 2k wireless notebook, 2 desktops runnung Windows XP, One Redhat 8.0 server, one Sun Cobalt Raq3 server, and the highly anticipated PB17. I can't wait for this awesome machine!
