I own a iBook2 700 14.1 and I am really happy with it. The only problem I have with it is that the flash plugins are not compiled for PowerPC (or if they are, i have not been interested enough to find them ;) If you have the money, I would go for the PowerBook since its processor is much more powerfull. Dual boot is not a problem. And if you decide to buy the ibook you can find step-by-step info on how to configure it at the address listed below.
