Finally a post that helps me, Thanks. I think Imma wait till the 16th and just go get one.

I disagree with the people that say if you wait you will never get one. I think you should not get one if there has been around 4-6 months since the last update to the type of co…

Here is the best thing to go by. If you are in dire need of one, say for work or what not then get one now. If you can afford to wait then wait and see if there is something bett…

Hi all, I'm in the same Apple-waiting game. I was waiting to get a 15 AlBook till after Keynote. Now waiting until the 16th when iLife '04 comes out. But what do you think of this…

Hi, this is what i think I was in the apple game after selling my 667 powerbook. Then, I read an article saying G5 will not be real 64bits, the reason of his existence, the great…

I also want a 12" 1GHz but i want a superdrive,i think i will wait 3 months more, they have to upgrade the Powerbooks big time, might be the G5 or the new G3+ going at 1.4Ghz any w…

iREZ, I'd wait. The powerbook speedbump will come soon. If you buy one now and the Powerbooks are upgrade 1-2 months later, you'll be pissed.

I think buy when you absolutely need. If you can still wait, then you probably don't need the notebook right now. For those playing the waiting game, don't forget that you'll have…

can anyone tell me if a notebook with the same specifications will run slower than a desktop with the same specifications? i heard from a few computer mags that this is true, but …

If they have the same specifications they will perform the same. The challenge is that you might often times find that only some of the specifications are the same. The processor…

Look here for some data.

i'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet. since the mini ipods are anondized aluminum in different colors, could alum powerbooks in different colors (pink?!) be in the not-to-di…

I would hope not but looking at the emacs and now these iPods....I think so

I sure as hell hope not, because anodized aluminum looks like cheap garbage. It looks like the stuff Pep Boys sells to dumb kids in Hondas.

Sorry I meant iMacs.... Typo

Nope, the powerbooks will NEVER be colored.

I don't agree. Red, blue and black annodized aluminum looks awesome IMHO. I expect the G5 PBs to have the same core current form factors, but will be colored in some way to disting…
