Hi all,
I'm back from a leave of absence from these forums; I stopped posting for a while following a few problems between me and certain other members here. I'm back in the hope…

Sounds like a great conquest, and it's always fun to be able to combine two machines into one.
I always liked the way tibooks looked, but they way they were built leaves a lot to …
I remember the very first time I saw one "in da flesh" in late 2002 - nearly two years after they were released. It was a brand new TiBook 800, and I remember thinking what an amaz…
They are nice machines! I remember when they were new I always thought they were the coolest. Such a jump from the G3 PowerBooks (even though I like them and they were great machin…

My thoughts on posts like these are the same as a few people have mentioned. Essentially, don't let the door hit your rear on the way out.
