I wouldn't worry too much about the bad problems you read about on the forums... most should have already been taken care of, so chances are you'll have a good machine. I got an …

My switch to a mac has been horrible. For over $3k I am seriously disappointed in this machine. I am setting it aside to just use at work, and ordering a new pc laptop for persona…

Just to make sure this is out there some of the last model of the Ti's had the white spots also. I kow because mine had them and has since been fixed. The Ti and 15" Al both used …

I'm a Macintosh lover but also a realist, and I am not blind to the fact that Apple has had some significant quality-control issues with the PowerBook line, especially in regard to…

My experiences with Macs has (fortunately) never been a bad one when it comes to hardware. I order a dual processor G5 in September and even though people were complaining about b…

I've had a new 17" PB for just over a month now, and it has no problems whatsoever. No white spots, no dead pixels, and it doesn't get that hot. Sure it can get a little warm, bu…

I had just gotten my 17 inch powerbook around a month ago, and have had no problems other than 1 dead pixel. I decided that I will not call apple and complain for two reasons. 1)…

I have been looking for MacWorld news... so far saw a cool DUAL G4 EMAC with a gig of RAM, 80 Gig HD, and 4X superdrive - $989 at www.smalldog.com ... and the Apple Web site store …

sorry... was sure that last evening the advertisement said it was a dualee G4... and figured that would be part of the news from MacWorld... must have been wishful thinking, huh?

Looks like Apple is updating the store now.

Hell, I was on a T1 lan and I had the problem.

Hi all, I'm having a problem with my Tibook. If I tell it to sleep it goes with no problem, but if I leave it running on battery power, it won't sleep. In energy saver I have the …

I've got the same problem except I know why! I had a tech fix my crashed screen and when replacing it he dislocated the magnet that is supposed to make it fall asleep it is locate…

No, it sleeps when you close it, but not when you leave it open on battery power. It should sleep after 5 minutes with the top up, to preserve battery power. J.

I might have the same problem. But it is intermittent. Sometimes it goes to sleep after the timeout, sometimes it doesn't. All was very reliable until the slew of updates when Pant…

I have found that if I have made any connections on the local network, my PB will not go to sleep.

Bump to an slightly dated post. I've suspected for a while that my RevB 12" PB with 10.3.3 has a case of insomnia, and its true It used to sleep fine when I first got it last yea…
