I feel exactly the same about my PowerBook.  It's about equivalent to 
your iBook, but I disagree with you on one point:

I do.  I have a 60G drive in here, and it's *very* useful.  It's 
constantly about half full of whatever it is I carry around, abut 
having gigs and gigs of free space is very handy.  I have a 40G 
pocket-size firewire drive as well, but without something to plug it 
into it's less handy than a laptop, if more easily portable.

My PB has become the only computer I use on a regular basis.  
Eventually, I'd like to get a big flatpanel and use it as a regular 
desktop too.  I freely admit that the 12.1" screen is smaller than I'd 
like.
