That big G3 powerbook screen (gorgeous? not exactly the word I would use) suffers from uneven contrast/apparent brightness--certainly not a Leica-grade picture there, even by notebook standards. As desktop machines, they are pokey and expensive. As mobile units, you really gotta be into this sort of thing to want to haul one around much, else you are a lot burlier than I am! I use an M6--and a Pilot Pro! Steve Jobs said, "Think Different", so I did--I went and looked at the G3's competition and decided I liked it better.
