<HTML>I decided for the i-book, not the titanium because after much consideration, research, and working with fcp on a titanium400 (really slow and jerky) and a g3powerbook 500 (slow but more solid), I decided that the supposed titanium miracle is just a bit too much hype. I think it really is faster, but not 1,200$ faster. Besides, when talking to people I got the impression that they felt the titanium was not only fragile physically (dents n such), but also not quite so stable internally (they told me to wait a while, maybe they'll get it ironed out). I have bought the new i-book for vacation and travel, and will save the 1200$ for my next really fat desktop computer.</HTML>
