    I thought you got word about the PB update...

    If you're a hardcore gamer, a Mac is not for you. You can run VirtualPC but many games will not work or it will be s-----l-----o------w.

    Depends on if you are travelling with it. 15" is ideal.

    Where can I find a 1.7GHz PB? I want one.

    The cards offered in Macs are not as good.
