June 6, 200521 yr So, I'm looking for a new laptop and was leaning toward an iBook when out of the blue Apple decides to switch to Intel chips. Considering this is a computer I will be having for quite a while, does it make sense to get an iBook? I don't want something that'll just turn into a paperweight in a short amount of time because of issues of backwards compatibility to the PPC chip line.
