Alrighty guys, I'll chime in. I picked up my 15" ultimate version from the Apple store last night and it has been pretty good. First couple things to note: 1. The 100gb 7200rpm …

Thanks for the info. Similarly to MacBoudille (the shots there aren't terribly good), a shot of a previous 15" side by side, or your iBook as well, if possible, would be great. If …

Interesting thread! I'm trying to decide which drive to order my 15" Powerbook with. The conclusion so far is, based upon what I've read here and other places (please correct me if…

One thing I'll say, the Seagate 100GB 5400rpm hard drive in my Powerbook is extremely quiet, I don't even hear anything when it's writing. I had an IBM T43p that had a 60gb 7200rpm…

you gotta ask yourself, how much time is it going to be pluged in and how much time is it going to be on battery, if its mostly going to be pluged in get the better preformer.

Yeah, I agree with striker100: I'd go for a slower but quieter drive any day. By the way, striker100, did that 100 Gbyte Seagate drive you have come in a new G4 Powerbook, or the …

My reading is that: 1) The 2.5" internally-installed 7200rpm Hitachi drive is around 50% faster than the stock Seagate 5400rpm drive. From the site: "Replace the HD will take twen…

What do you think? I haven't played Myst since the first one but it utilized a simple interface. They would have to simplify movement and 'hot link' on screen items so they coul…

A possibility, but Apple hasn't shown a lot of interest in developing games for the iPod, and I think they might be worried about releasing something like you describe, for fear of…

The reason I brought up Myst is that it appealed to many non-gamers. I don't think it dilutes things anymore than having Solitare or Breakout built-in. Like video it would simply…

If I ever left my 40G iPod Photo unattended for more than 15 minutes it would sleep. My iPod Video didn't go to sleep at all overnight. What gives?

Anyonw else with a Video iPod noticed this?

OK, I called Apple today becasue I can't get over to the Apple Store this afternoon, and this lack of sleep thing is wasting the battery. The Apple tech on the other end says this…
