The PowerBook was just what has been predicted and nothing more. Apple just can't get a G5 in that little case, and the little case is one of the PowerBook's biggest "features". …

I'm not impressed! This was most probably the last PowerBook G4 update ever and this was all they could manage. I was hoping for a speed-bumped 12", with a graphic card that supp…

So would anyone in the know mind explaining to me what the deal is with PC2-4200 running at 333MHz? I'm assuming the G4 memory bus is the same 167MHz as in my Rev. A 17" @ 1GHz, no…

quit bitching about it. Apple isn't making you buy anything.

Well, this is a terrible update after 10 months, or however incredibly long it has been. the bus is the same, the speed is the same--it's just price cuts and whatever improvements …

Right about now my money is burning a hole in my pocket....for a Sony S series laptop. That about says it all for the Apple laptop upgrades. However if I only had a 1 Ghz Powerbo…

If they lowered the price another $500, I would have been happy with the update. The PB is simply not worth the price, I don't care what anyone says.

The picture at the Apple store of the "new" (lol) PB is pretty cool.

Go price me a laptop with all the options that the current powerbook offers, then get back to me. I'm talking about quality laptop makers not some cheap ****.

Im waiting for the Mobile Intel Macs. This will be a poor seller to those privy enough to know whats going on. But Apple needs to make improvements for those wanting them and their…

All in all its a pretty crappy upgrade, but then there probably wasnt much they could have done that could have been considered value added. Why invest time and resources in a sys…

well im kind of pissed but i had this coming. i bought my 15" powerbook with some upgrades a couple of months ago for around 2500 after the education discount. now all that stuff i…

I really don't get all the whining; for those of us in the upgrade cycle, it's a pleasant surprise. For those who weren't buying, you're not buying now anyway, so who really cares …

You'll be waiting a long[er] time for an Intel Powerbook, though. Like Apple said, they're going to transition the "consumer" computers first (iBook, Mac Mini, perhaps iMac?) befor…

I purchased a new 17" PB 2 months ago. Well actually I purchased 8 because the first 7 were faulty (bad batch apparently) Anyways, I'm pretty relieved. I was dreading a major upda…
