Im absolutely SICK of how a simple USB2 card reader cant be properly recognized, or how my images become corrupted after connecting them to the powerbook. This is clearly a drive…

im not the only one with this problem, LOTS of others have it too: http://discusssearch.info.apple.com/...AN.7@.599d2315

I use a PC Card reader, attainable for less than $10.00 at Amazon--for a brand name; I believe it's faster too. (This setup) seems to work fine for me.

I doubt that it is faster than usb2.0 glad you arent havint problems

I have had many problems with my early rev powerbook similar to Scott. It seemed to be going back every 4 months even though I took great care of the whole thing. Apple finally ha…

I'm getting ready to buy a 15" Powerbook really soon. Ever since the 15" Powerbook was released, I wanted to buy one but kept holding off due to the white spot problem. Now that …

I bet if you go to a retail store you can ask to inspect the machine before you buy it. I ordered a stock 15Al from the Apple Store for Education, and I've got three major white s…

You can't honestly believe that any store would display defective products? As for the white spot problem, everything I've heard about them suggests that most times the spots don'…

I was at the Tampa Apple Store 2-3 weeks ago and I saw that one of the 15" PB floor models had the white spots.

I just got a new 1ghz 15" Powerbook last Friday. I was also afraid of the white spot issue, so I told the salesperson that I was aware of the problem and wanted to inspect the lap…

TRACKPOINTS RULE. please make this BTO Apple... (yeah right.........this will happen only after Apple releases a 2 button/scroll wheel mouse) READ: NEVER.

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…

I just had the same problem. No wobble for 2 months. Yesterday - massive wobble that won't go away. Anyone have a fix?

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…

I found the end that wasn't balancing. Placed that end off the table and gently put pressure w/ my forarm while holding down the other side. No more rocking!

My 12" Rev B was perfect until I had the display replaced, then it wobbled. I brought it back to the shop I bought it from and within a few minutes it was perfect again. He just ha…

I have the exact same rev. a problems as you kertong. The aluminium popout bothers the hell out of me. What to do? I bought my machine in Aug 03 Ivar

I'd call BS on Apple. No ****ing way would I accept a warped Powerbook.

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…
