Well, at least until 10.2. This site describes how to customize the boot screen. Fill in the old Happy Mac logo or create a new 128x128 image. Waiting for the first WinXP logos to be posted..." Cool. I made a startup image with the MacPerl icon.

    I am also one of those people. My experience with the iBook is that it can efficiently sleep for days at a time. I used to shut it down when away from power sources for a day or so. Then I tried leaving it on and it hardly drained the battery at all. Try it! I would never reboot if it weren't for Software Updates that force me to every now and then. Otherwise, it is unneccessary.
