![]() MacBook: Final thoughts: "After less than a week with the MacBook I am back on the iBook. I can keep it another week, but I have already switched back. There is only one reason for doing this: The iBook runs much cooler." [vowe dot net] I have been thinking about upgrading my four-year old PowerBook G4 to a MacBook, but I'm not in a hurry.

Perhaps the next revision will. Having internal Bluetooth (instead of a D-Link usb adapter) would be good, though, because the adapter tends to be forgotten on the table at work.
