there will be compatability issues yes but you can transfer files. you may just have trouble finding programs that can use them but most files... .gif, .jpg, .mp3, .mpeg, . txt, .htm, .wav, etc can be used on either computer

Yes, but if you use Mac OSX you'll get used to it and you'll never look back to Windows. If you could get OSX on any computer, not just Macs, nobody would ever have used Windows.
2 :
It is possible and can basically be done one of two ways 1) using Bootcamp, you can install then always boot into Windows if you want, where you need a Windows install CD and license key and 2) using virtualization (e.g. Virtualbox) where you can run Windows inside MacOS, also requires a Windows CD and license key. If you've ever installed Windows on a PC you could handle installing Windows via Bootcamp.

Nobody knows for sure. I don't think we'll see it until MacWorld in January. Others are thinking more like October. It's all just speculation.

Latest rumors put new Mac Laptops out in early September. Supposedly there will be a new MacBook with aluminum case and a touch screen or glass touchpad. Also rumors have new MacBook pros coming out with similar features. The only one that would stay the same is the MacBook Air. There are also supposed to be some new iPods. The current models will be in stores for maybe another month.

5 years for any laptop is generally pretty good, if not average life expectancy. I see people trying to nurse laptops along for 7+ years and it's just wrong... To a certain extent, it depends on what you do with it (photo editing vs. word editing, surfing vs. rendering, etc.) But personally I wouldn't pay to repair your iBook/Powerbook. It'll be at least $200-300 at a very minimum, unless you can do it yourself (I wouldn't). I usually peg a laptop for having about 3-4 years of good use, after that, it's usually a backup computer.
