The new G4 iBook has 32 Meg video RAM and a Radeon 9200 chipset...

BTW, my 15" Ti is still stuck... I tried to install OS X 10.1.1 (the
only original CD I have) on an external firewire drive, but that failed
on restart it seems (still working on that).

My plan now is to try and get an OS running, copy off the files,
install a larger HD (40 Gig instead of the existing 20 Gig) and rebuild
my laptop. My 10.1.1 installer doesn't have a "repair permissions"
button, and the "repair" and "verify" now complete fine (there was a
broken cluster or two prior to the "repair")...
