    The iBook is only $100 more otherwise.

    well, for one, you are looking at an iBook. it's apple's consumer machine. you wouldn't expect Dell's budget models to be better than their enterprise/gamer rigs, do you? on the same note, you can ask why Dell's still selling celeron. these aren't top of the line machines for apple.

    you should look at these in the context of other Macs. these are indeed upgrades.
