Thank you. I'm very surprised to find that replicators aren't very common for the powerbook line. As popular as they are I would have thought someone would have launched a nice d…

I used a BookEndz dock for my Ti 400 and honestly, it wasn't worth the expense ($250). You have to line it up just right and spend a lot of time futzing with it to get it to work …

I don't get it. Even if you use a replicator you're still plugging and unplugging from the Powerbook. So the wear and tear is the same either way. I think there are two main reaso…

Random idea I had the other day. Most of Apple's high end desktops have been dual processor for a while, why not offer that possibility in a laptop? Well, shoving two CPUs inside…

I hate plugging and unplugging the cables from my laptop. The missing element on Powerbooks is a single in-line connector that many PC notebooks (Dell 600, Sony V505) have either…

I take my laptop on/off my desk twice a day and connnecting/disconnecting cables isn't that big a deal. I have power, speakers, 1xusb which goes to my keyboard, my MS Natural has …

A couple months ago, I got a 15 inch Powerbook. Perviously, I'd been using an old clamshell iBook. Anyway, I've noticed that, in my Powerbook's Airport menu, there's an option that…

I think what it does is improve the signal over any interference, but at the cost of the distance you can be from your base station.

Now there's a good first post.

I should've known to come here to find out. Had to google it. Defintitely helpful!

its under the airport wireless icon on the menu bar, what does that feature do? anyone?

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…
