Actually someone does sell replacements ... I don't recall whom ... MacRescue? Price wasn't too bad .. but those black spongy things from some guy in Hawaii off eBay work well to…

Go to your local apple store, and they will replace them. Also, if you call apple on the phone (provided you have applcare) they will send you new ones. I've lost 2 off of my 12"…

or you could order from pbparts.com

Replace them ASAP. I waited too long like a idiot slacker and it resulted in a few scratches and scrapes on underbelly. Plus they are too deep to buff out

I did re-callibrate the battery last night. Then when it finished cahrging I unplugged the charger and a low battery warning came up says that I was now using reserve battery and t…

I recharged mine too. Lasts 1.50 now. Either Panther sucks or my battery hasnt got a very long shelf life. New PB purchased in March 2003 - shouldn't deteriorate that quickly shoul…

I can't stand it when people say "do a search," but in this case... your answer is a few threads down on this same page: http://forums.macnn.com/showthread.p...hreadid=196820

I currently have a ti550 powerbook, and thinking about getting a 12 AL powerbook. I kinda like the 12 better than the 15 for price and portablity. I also have G4 1gig MDD with 20…

I went from a Rev A Ti/400 to a Rev A 12" 867. 1. Will I miss my 15 inch widescreen. Yes. But I do not plan on doing much development ON the screen itself. It's a laptop, for use…

I was forced to move from my TiBook 667 (the one after yours). Mine was stolen from my classroom and I wanted a new laptop with a SD. Unfortunately, my insurance wouldn't cover the…

I went from a 667 to a Rev A 12". I was very worried that I'd miss the extra screen size, but I don't. I've had to get used to using my windows a bit differently, but it's just a m…

I also went from a Ti to a 12. I had a Ti 800, and now I have a 12 " 1 Gig. 1. Will I miss my 15 inch widescreen. Depends on what you do. I have a desktop with a Cinema Display, …

Well, heres another point to look at. I went from a 667 Ti DVI to a rev a 867 12" and was not very happy at all. The screen was way to small for me, and the thing got hotter than a…

Thanks for all of the replies, I'm not unhappy with my ti550 i just feel like it is just a little lagging sometime. I was planning to upgrade my ram to 1 gig...which will cost ab…

One more thing, I do transfer alot of photo from PM to my TiBook via giga ethernet. I've just notice that the 12 PB do not have gigabit ethernet. How much slower will the files b…

Well, the file transfers will be, like, 10x slower . You can use firewire to get faster than 100mbps, though. Definitely sell the Tibook if you can get $1k, that's pretty good.

Forgive me for my dumb question, but how exactly do i transfer files from my PM to my PB through the fire wire.
