I had a G3 firewire PowerBook for 2 years and took it around the world. After 2 years it still looked and functioned just as it did the day I got it. Now I have a one month-old Ti…

I have a TiBook 400 that I bought used in December, I can't speak for the keeper before me, but I treat it pretty rough. In and out of my tool bag, traveling with it to and from w…

Unless you're treating it like a G3 PowerBook, the G4 PowerBook will hold up to normal wear and tear. I don't think it's typical to have a hinge break after a month. How often are…

I'm treating my TiBook (667) with the utmost of care, and the paint is still chipping off in places. I always remove my watch, so that's not the problem. BTW, the TiPaint is a ripo…

OmniWeb doesn't render it atrociously, either...

IE5.1 for Mac. I just meant that since this new sig is wider the text fits underneath it but doesn't go right from edge to edge, fitting perfectly in that sense. I hope it preserve…

I have three close friends with Ti G4s (667, 550, 500) and all but the 500 have been in the shop for major repairs. Not a good record. PeteWK

I tried it in OmniWeb. It's not perfectly aligned, but I can't please every browser, can I? I would need to make it part of the image, and we all know the admins don't want a sign…

I haven't heard too much about the durability of the Ti Powerbooks but I was going to get one when I got a good deal on my iBook 600 with the 14.1 inch screen. This Machine defina…

My Ti400 leads a pretty decent life. Sometimes I take it to class just in my backpack stuffed in between some books, and since I don't have a USB hub (someone recommend a good one…

I've had my 500 for over a year, and I only rubbed paint off in one spot by the PC Card slot. Once I found out why it was happening I started using a sleeve case and it hasn't suff…

Buy a laptop case with good padding (I am using a Samsonite) and take your watch off when using it.

Even my iBook gets special care. I always use a screen protector, and I always transport it in its padded sleeve, which fits right into my backpack. I know it's tough, but I want…

Well, I have a Ti 400. I know exactly what you mean as to the durability of the Titanium. It's definitely nothing like my old Pismo. the Pismo I'd put between books, and treat i…

Just use a sleeve to protect while carrying. Just be some careful while working with it. It should be fine as long as all your guys Pismos were Not am I saying the Pismo wasn't a…

Hello fellow Mac Enthusiasts, Once again the durability of the TiPb is being question. You have to love the boldness a TiPb owner for a only a few of them can admit that their mac…

i've owned a pismo and two ti powerbooks. the pismo was a war horse -- it was dropped a few times and carried around the world without so much as a crack. the case material covered…

I regularly hurl my Pismo PowerBook onto soft surfaces like couches and beds from across the room. The lid is obviously closed, and the machine is either sleeping or shut down. …

I used to hurl my iBook all the time, that was until i threw it onto the bed and it bounced off onto the floor, lets just say my father wasn't happy... But, you have to love the d…
