The iBook appeals to me for a number of reasons.  I have looked at the
gentoo site,

and I'm very impressed.

I don't play games that often.  If I do get the urge I have them on my
Windows machines.  At this point I don't have an interest in emulators

My interest in Linux is mostly from the networking aspect. 

Thanks for your input.
