I've had my iBook G4 for two months now and I've only needed to reboot once. It's great! Best things about an iBook:
- Don't turn it off and boot it up each day. When you're finished working, just shut the lid and it's off. The next day just open the lid and it's fully functional within 2 seconds.
- Battery life is usually about 3-4 hours which beats PC notebooks hands down.
- It's super small so you hardly know you're lugging a laptop.
- Ultra stable operating system.
- Very good screen & keyboard.
- New price drop and CPU speed update make for even more value.
- You can add internal bluetooth, extra Hard Disk, extra RAM.
- Comes with firewire for external HDD and iPods.

It's perfect, even better than my old 15" Powerbook. It's just the right size!
