if i were looking for a case for my powerbook, i would find something tough to protect it. I wouldn't just use a sleeve. my tom bihn is nice in that the sides of the case are metal…

I bought the Brenthaven 1 from the Apple store and I love it.

Pelican makes a Decent case as well.

The bluetooth offers anti theft + some sort of storage apparently. I assume its just got a memory card in it with a blue tooth adapter or something. Looks pretty snazzy. I have a B…

Sean, how much have you seen it for? I haven't found any pricing info for it.

Doesnt sound all that practical to me... a laptop format for a desk use only, where you need an external battery, and where the thing weights 7 pounds? Heck the web site says that…

Place your bids now!! You just know that this is going to be a popular one!

I would much rather remove my Ti battery and make it about 3 lbs.

anyone (apart from a collector or someone with way too much money) who buys this hunk of crap is a complete idiot.

I don't know.... it's not for me but I can see how this type of machine (maybe not this one in particular, but this type) could appeal to some people. I happen to use my laptop in…

Hmm, that looks exactly like a laptop my no-brand-name local computer reseller just started selling... and at $500 less than what this e-bay guy wants, too. http://www.ditcorp.com/…

Here's a link to a product that looks identical, and has a essentially the same name (ECS i-Buddy 4 DeskNote): http://www.mobileperipherals.com/extibuddy4.html Lame name, stupid …

I have a feeling Elitegroup (ECS) is producing these shoddily-designed notebooks.

Their name is corny too! The Humbee Desknote! (lol) Edit; sig update [ 04-17-2002: Message edited by: Mac Zealot ]

That Alienware comp is pretty nice...

They don't specify the weight or battery life. I wonder why... But the do say this: "Sticking with Alienware� tradition, each unit is packed full of fans and exhaust units to ensu…

This laptop is a powerhouse, it sports a *desktop* P4 and a 64MB video card amoung other things, at yet it is still $2800, i would be interested in some benchmarks to see how this …

Those Alienware machines look FANtastic. True hardcore gaming machines capable of doing anything else thrown at them. I wish a Powerbook had that power with the same PBG4 design an…
