On laptops 16

I’m looking for a laptop. The two best choices I’ve got yet are:

PC
Intel Pentium M 740 FSB 533 1.73 1.8Ghz
80GB Hard drive
1024MB RAM
Mobility™ Radeon X600 128MB
DVD/CD burner combo
Price: $2,065.30 CDN + tax
Mac
12′ inch Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz
SuperDrive (DVD/CD burner)
NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 (64MB DDR)
512MB RAM
80GB Hard drive
Price: $1,899.00 CND + tax (student price)

The only thing that keep me from buying the mac is that Apple are supposed to change their PowerPC cpus to Intel’s ones. Plus, my iriver H10 isn’t mac-compatible… but did I mention that if I buy a Powerbook, I get a free iPod mini?

What do you think? Would buying a Mac at this time be a good idea?
