Who is sellin his old TiPB to a poor student in Paris )

No PAN (Personal Area Network) technology in this one though. IR is gone, and Bluetooth has not been added. So much for syncing my Nokia 8290 phone, or using it as a modem withou…

Anyone know where to find one of the 550mhz DVD/CD-RW powerbooks cheap now that they have been discontinued?

Drakino - I thought something looked off on that new back panel. So we get audio-in, but lose IR. Just like how we lost one FW port and the audio-in during the upgrade from the Pim…

THERE IS A GOD. This is as good as I could have imagined, I'm taking out the credit card now. I love these little surprises--ie, the L3 cache!!! That's awesome, and will make a…

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!! Finally. I've been holding out for this day since January and it's finally here. I guess I wanted 1536x1024, but this will do fine. The 1MB L3 …

Man, I was really hoping for 1534x1024 (that's what you get if you scale 834 up to 1024). However, it makes sense. I'm in the minority of people who likes really high dpi screens…

What a morning! Wake up.... go to bathroom, check email... check macminute.com. Hmmm, it's sad that that's my morning routine, but it paid off today! I think these new 'Books lo…

It doesn't have DVI instead of VGA, it has both!

yeah but my Palm doesn't have Airport.... maybe dropping irda is more of a nod to bluetooth's role in the future?

I am now $4000 poorer, but the Pbook 800 (1 gig and 60 gig HD) is on the way, baby! I thought briefly about driving 20 minutes to the Apple Store to get the 512/40gig model (they …

Wow, a lot of people have sprung for the Rev C on the first day! I'm impressed! Not to change the subject here, but even after 3 revisions, I'm still happy with my Pismo! It has I…

I don't quite understand why people are SO excited about this new PB - don't get me wrong, it's nice, but it's really not revolutionary. Aside from about 3 more pixels and a sligh…

Geforce 4 with 64Mbs would have been better. Apple should dump ATI.

No IrDA port? Now I feel better that I bought Rev B with an IrDA port to Synchronize with my Palm although I have to boot Palm Desktop in OS 9. The new PB looks excellent to me. Au…
