In the iBook line, the 12-inch model is simply a better machine than the 14-inch version, mainly because of its nicer-looking display and greater portability; the downside, of course, is that it's slower and can't be outfitted with a SuperDrive. Still, it remains a very good value.
Pros: Very good value; adequate memory; trackpad scrolling; AirPort Extreme and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR now standard.
Cons: No DVD burner, not even as a build-to-order option; loud optical drive.
