I want to buy a laptop, bit i don’t much difference in between them. I know Ibook’s price is lower then iMac’s. That’s pretty much all… Help please!!!!!!

Well the most obvious difference is that the iMac is a desktop computer and the iBook (although old and out of production since 2005) is a Laptop which is why the price is MUCH lower. The current MacBooks start at $999 for the previous gen white plastic one and go up to $1299 for the latest unibody aluminuim MacBook (starting price)

I would suggest the $999 MacBook – why? Its still current, the iBook isn’t.

The current iMac is a slim all in one desktop computer

The MacBook also has the multi touch mouse pad

Macs run Microsoft Office:mac
or
iWork08 from Apple which works with MS office
http://www.apple.com/iwork/

All Macs can also run Windows with Bootcamp, VMware or Parallels which contrary to some opinions DOESN’T run Windows slowly.

You can also develop apps for the Mac or iPhone with the iPhone SDK
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/program/

Or you can download OpenOffice3.0 which is native to Mac and FREE
- it works with MS Office too.

All Macs come with iLife08

PhotoBooth and Garage Band and Safari web browser.
There is also HEAPs of FREE stuff for Mac
