Can anyone with a g3 ibook tell me if it's powerful enough to do photoshop and flash work with? I'm not looking for cutting edge, just enough to get the job done without too much of a hassle.

I have a Powerbook G4 500Mhz and a friend of mine has a iBook 600Mhz,
My powerbook ran circles around the iBook.
with the new software that is out now, i would recommend forking over the dough and getting a powerbook, it will last you allot longer and wont be a hassle.

i've got an iBook g3 500mhz it was my last machine, i hated designing on it. pshop, illy and flash were slow and screen estate is tiny. i'd get a cheap g4 powerbook if you can. hope that helps. oh and the 10gig drive is tiny.

yes and the ibooks are notorious for having logic board problems. my girlfriend had to send hers back twice already to get it fixed.

- i got an iBook G3 500 12' and it was fine 2 years ago!!..
i hate it now and it sucks big time..- also have an iMac G4 700 15'
and it still works fine with new newest fancy software and not a bad machine at all.- i traded the two things above for a Powerbook G4 400 15.2'
and it was 250% better working on, i would change back any second if i could.. :' (- get a cheap Tibook!! you can't break them.. my friend ran over his with his Mini Cooper Twice by accident and it's still running great..!! best laptop ever made
- that's all i can say!
