IBM makes the highest quality laptops on the planet, but they're also the most expensive...and you have to run XP. Is it worth it, Scott?
Everyone should use the tool that best en…

My last experience with IBM laptops was with 4 Thinkpad i1200s. They were rather unpleasant little machines, with ME installed. I can understand them being buggy and unreliable bec…

Kidding aside, Scott-- you did get AppleCare, and you're not paying a cent, right?

Scotttheking, a program I would recommend to you is Norton Ghost. It makes an image of your entire computer "programs, files, registry" and you can put this on a cd, dvd, or even …

Do what I did. Call up Apple, tell them you're tired of sending your Ti in for repair every two months, that this is unacceptable, and demand a new laptop. Thats how I got my AlBoo…

Your machine may qualify for Apple's trade in program. It'll get you $700 towards a new machine. Or you could just demand a new machine.

As much as I love Apple, I have to admit that situations such as yours Scott certainly show that Apple is far from perfect.
I wouldn't be too hesitant about demanding a new machi…

Frankly, I've been shocked by the recent posts coming from Scott. Are we at all certain that he hasn't been replaced with a Microsoft cyborg?
Hi Apple, it's Scott. My Powerbook has a problem, AGAIN — #18
The box is here, I'll be shipping the laptop out Monday. There are 3 reasons I didn't ask for a replacement. First, it'd be very hard to get stuff like my ram, airport card, and …

I am waiting on a call from Apple to confirm when I will be getting my replacement PowerBook.
My TiBook is 2 years, 9 months old and has been repaired a total of 7 times. In a fou…

When my Tibook was replaced they gave me the option to pay to upgrade to the high end model. My Tibook will hopefully arrive by Friday. It'll be really nice if it never has to go…

Well, Apple just called. They are giving me a 1Ghz AiBook for my 500Mhz TiBook. I offered to pay for an upgrade to the 1.25Ghz model but they said they can't do that.
I'll have to…

Yes, they can do that. You'll have to get customer relations to do it though. Keep arguing if necessary.

They should give you a 1.25. The 500mhz was the high end from that model. If it was a tibook 400, then they would be correct in giving you a 1ghz…

Well, they are throwing in a free Airport Extreme card as well. And I'm getting a new machine shipped from Taiwan so I'm happy.
One question that I forgot to ask and I don't have …

Sorry, didn't realize you were dealing with Apple Europe.
