Has it been so long that when people think "Apple" they automatically think
"Macintosh"?
...I guess it has. Anyway, the Powerbook runs everything a desktop Mac will
run, and no, it's not drastically slower than Intel based computers. AMD is
the reigning speed champ on the Windows side of the house anyway.
A Mac will read windows disks and files right out of the box. It will run
Windows programs with the addition of Virtual PC. Enjoy your G4
Powerbook...
