It sounds like Apple needs to rethink the TiBook's paint job if nothing else. I have a white iBook and it's very sturdy, although compared to my old toilet-seat iBook it's pretty …

Good God! That's horrible and totally abnormal. I hope you will/did send it in to Apple for repair or replacement!

I can't believe how bad that computer looks. I'd be freaking out. I am so glad that my 667 is still 100% perfect after taking it to work ever single day since I got it 6 months…

I have a TiBook that I treat very well- not like it's made of glass or anything, but I'm careful. Never tossed it. I am surprised at the wear on the lighter silver paint (the hinge…

Wow. You people tossing laptops around... you're tempting fate big time. Eventually after internal components weaken from the added stress of being jostled around like that -if you…

OW!!! Those pictures are horrible! I myself have seemed to end up on this side of the line with my powermac, and it's pretty depressing, but OUCH!

I have a Ti since the were introduced. I'm on the road around 70% of the year and don't take particular care of it. It has some paint bruses on the top of the lid and some corners …

Anyone else having issues? http://ems.music.uiuc.edu/p/photo.ph...tive_Powerbook

It looks like it's rusting!

I have a year old Ti 400 that I bring to my work place every day (I bike). I also have travelled around Europe three times. Still, not a single scratch. Do not blame the computer, …

It's definitely not his fault. Scratches are usually lines. His is chipping. Dropping the machine would only dent it. The paint is most definitely defective.

All i hope is when i buy the new revision as soon as it is released, what ever it is, that they have addressed this problem and have some how made the laptop stronger and more scra…

A friends Tibook 550 fell from 1.5 meters and it spat out one of those "card" cds that was stuck into it. No damages. No worn paint, he treats it rather brutally.

Hi All, I gotta prob and I need to see if anybody else has seen anything like this: smudges _under_ my screen! I'm not talking about the infamous finger-grease-from-keyboard prob…

Yeah, I know what you'r talking about. It looks like a defect on my screen, like a bump. It shows best on startup, a darkish circle around the center of my screen. It doesn't bothe…

I was noticing a faint yellowish spot, especialy when on a purely white screen. Then I looked at other parts of the screen and realized that the spot moved. (yep. The spot's in …

Well, I've a dark "smudge/line" at the bottom left of my screen after moving my PB around...tried shaking the PB to get rid of it but to no avail. It looks more like a shadow of a…

Well, I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem (Coyote, it's not the blind spot, but worth mentioning, thanks. My spot doesn't move :-) I'm on a bit of a deadl…
