I have a Samsung "yo-yo", and my power adapter exhibits a slight buzzing noise when recharging my battery - I can't notice it until I put my face right up to it. It doesn't bother …

My samsung yoyo works great, no hum, no stripped cord, no sparks(!), but it gets uncomfortably hot to the touch. Is that normal? ------------------ Art for web's sake

it apparently causes no issues, right? then normal it is...

Well, it seems pretty fair to say that Samsung and Delta electronics have been PROTOTYPING a lot with these units and that the results are very random. About the heat issue, I fin…

My Samsung yo-yo easily wins: � It has a silver embossed apple logo, � says on the bottom "i was made in China, my model No: M7322", � Charges the Pismo battery flawlessly � Hums…

I have four Pismo laptops all exibiting the keys touching screen problem. This problem is caused by too little space between the keys and LCD panel and shows up as grease marks on …

I have a Pismo 400 and I have noticed the same problem. At first I was quite nervous about it. Meaning I just thought I got a bad egg. I haven't had any problems cleaning off th…

I have had the same experience with this series of laptops. The most well-traveled machine in my collection, a PowerBook G3 Series (1999), had these annoying marks on its screen. …

I've got the same marks, only worse. My problem is made worse by the heat sink in my PB. It's too big for the casing and makes the left side of my keyboard bulge upward, which in…

Perhaps your processor module needs to be pushed in more. To do this, remove the two screws that hold the shielding tight, and firmly but carefully apply pressure. Be sure to first…

Thanks for the tip! I'm not confident enough to do too much myself "under the hood," but I'll mention it to the guy at the service place. But he seems convinced that it's the hea…

Sponge, A heat sink that makes the keyboard bulge *IS* a problem, and don't let any "Apple" tech tell you otherwise. Something is mis-aligned or mis-manufactured. They should re-s…

Go ahead - get bent! Steve Jobs has great ideas. He is the one who made products that we buy. http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/smile.gif But, you're right. We were the ones who b…

"...going to resort to keeping a sheet of something between the keyboard and the screen." that would likely add to the problem somewhat by adding extra pressure (as was suggested …

I use a swiffer disposable sheet between the keys and screen to prevent such marks. Plus the sheets does its original job by trapping dust and dirt on contact. 16 sheets per box …

I have had bad experiences with Swiffer/Grab-it cloths. Their static-attraction coating is very oily, and leaves hard-to-remobe gunk on the screen. It took copious amounts of 409 a…

My take on this situation is a rather annoyed one. "Why should we have to tote along something to put between the keyboard and the screen to prevent scratches? We paid thousands o…

Perhaps the worst part of all this is that Apple's warranty and/or AppleCare doesn't cover Powerbook screens. I have a feeling nobody will be getting anything from Apple over this…

Apple refuses to fix what I think is their own mistake. I've decided to sell my Powerbook and buy something with better quality. I will NEVER buy an Apple product again.

i just ordered a pismo 500, and i was considering options to carry it in. i was thinking about buying a backpack with a padded laptop panel. do you think this would aggrivate th…

Sponge I don't blame you. I urge all Pismo owners with this problem to do these three things: (a) call Apple service at 800-500-7078 and voice your disatisfaction. (b) Complain t…
