Well like I said yesterday, I sometimes use an even s-l-o-w-e-r 117mhz
Powerbook, the 5300ce. But with high-speed internet (for me via a Cable Modem), for
my uses, it's fine.

Even when I use my 100mhz Duo 2300c to browse -- when I'm feeling nostalgic
-- it is cool for my uses.

All I use the internet for, though, is e-mail reading, light browsing,
accessing info when I am repairing powerbooks/ibooks, scouring Ebay, LIVE
web-cameras from "beauty-school girls gone crazee".... (oops!), and it is fine for me.
YMMV.

If you plan on some online gaming or 'udder thangs' like that, then I would
think you would need more speed.
