If that is the only consideration (i.e., price isn't a factor),
then get the 750--it is a great machine and that screen is a *lot* better
than 8.5 inches--heck, just seeing the different between the 9.5 inch
screen and the 10.5 inch screen made me switch from a Cs to a C (but
of course, the active matrix was an improvement too).

You're in good company here. ;)

What about A/UX? (Apple's Unix.) Won't it run on a sufficiently
configured Powerbook?
Even then, I wouldn't buy a Powerbook until they get a PowerPC
chip into those things. Anything less is buying an obsolete machine
right off the bat. The 68K chips are dead--or will be *very* soon--
as far as Macs are concerned. I can see Apple no longer even *making*
a machine with a Motorola 68K chip inside of 2 years--maybe less.
