I'm switching from PC to Mac next week. I'm going to get a powerbook. I'm just not sure which one i want to get, the 12 or the 15.



I use my computer for everything and i know a lot about computers. I use Office suite + adobe products all the time.



The 12inch is so tiny but the screen is too small to do graphic stuff.



The 15inch seems perfect for graphics, but i'm not sure how mobile it is.



I like the power of the 15 and how much RAM i can put in there, but the size of the 12 is so nice.



Which one should i get?

    I'd recommend that 15 incher. Better graphics card, faster processor, and in reality, not much heavier/less transportable.

    Well he didn't exactly say which model of the 15" pbook he will get. If he goes for the low end 15" he will get the same CPU as the 12" pbook. If he shells out more he will get the 1.5 Ghz G4. I would recommend the 12" Powerbook G4 and then get an external display and have the extra screen size needed. Do you plan to do graphic work on a plane or car?

    well if you want to BTO it, you have to get it from the apple online store...



    however, I would recommend against getting ram from apple...
