Shoot. I bought a rev. A 12" 867mhz powerbook a month ago..
It was perfect then.. but now I am noticing the wobble, and the aluminum right next to the latch-release button has po…
Hey is this on the 12 inch?
My girlfriend just mentioned her 12 PB wobbles due to the battery not seating flush! We went to the Apple Store in Clarendon, VA and got rude treatmen…

Agreed - the "p…
My wife and I went into 2 Apple stores here in the Dallas area. At both stores, we were treated like dirt. The sales people were very rude, especially at the Knox street store in…
Rather na�vely I bought my 12" RevB PB with Superdrive assuming that any blank write-only DVD media would work fine. I went out and bought a box full of blank DVD+Rs, only to lear…
not really. DVD-R and +RW are totally different standards. if you had a DVD-Multi drive that supported +RW, then it would work, but macs don't come with those. That and matsushita …
I'm talking about DVD+R, not DVD+RW (I assume they're not the same thing?). I only realised there was a difference when I read the latest issue of MacFormat which reviews a dual-f…
+R is a derivitive of the +RW standard (it's called the +RW consortium or something like that. a group of companies that make +R/+RW stuff. they're not actually part of the DVD for…

I have 1 GHz 12" Powerboook with only 256 MB RAM. Now I found out that the standard 256 MB is non-removable. I would like to max the ram capacity and buuy the 1 GB chip, but I just…

by the time the price of a 1 GB stick drops to where a 512 MB stick is now, you may be thinking of replacing your new powerbook. buy what you can afford now.

I was in the same situation a few weeks ago. I also have a PB 1ghz with a 80 GB HD. I added a 512 MB stick. But I don't see a big difference. I would advice you to add a 256 MB sti…

I want to do a archive and install of 10.3 on my PB 1.25 since the computer is running flaky and its time to tidey up.
