Ok so heres the deal, I've finally saved up enough for a PB G4, and I can't wait to get it. The trouble is my stomach is bothering me because I keep hearing all these futurists pr…

I waited for about a month or two until MW, just figuring that if I didn't I'd be silly. Well my PB shipped this morning and I couldn't be more psyched. This topic is brought up a…

I'm currently in the same situation. I have a G4-upgraded Pismo and I really want to get the 15". As I've already got a computer, I'm thinking about waiting until either the next…

I wouldn't count on G5 PowerBooks until the 04-05 school year starts after this summer *at the earliest*. If you can't wait *at least* that long, get the G4, they're awesome.

Like I continue to say. If you can't wait just get it. If you wait you may keep waiting til the next one and the next one then you may never jump in and get one. The G4 Powerboo…

I just got my first Mac (pb 17" 1.33) and I don't regret buying it now. The way I figure it is I can always sell this one when the new ones come out. Mac's really seem to hold thei…

Here's another option for you. You could get an iBook G4 and continue to save the money you don't spend. Then when the G5s do come out, you'll be able to hold yourself off until …

Well, I just got my 15" SuperDrive in...I don't care if the G5 comes out tomorrow, I won't be sorry - really. This machine is just so fantastic and I've barely turned it on and set…

I'm sick and tired of all these threads. "Should I get a Powerbook now or wait??" People are ALWAYS afraid of buying a computer now only to have a new upgraded one come out soon …

Thanks Bastard. Quote: ... BUT IT NOW. If you don't NEED it for something (school, work, something imperative), and you have a computer already...WAIT. But prepared …

I say, buy the G4 right now...i was in the same dilemma....and i don't regret buying my 15al at all...except for the fact that i can't excatly do my homework on this comp since all…

I AM EXTREMELY UPSET! I just got off a travel trip, and when I took out my AlBook (which I got in May), I noticed the front corner of it was dented. Turns out the outer casing is…

Can you take a picture? My camera USB connector fell on top of my PB when it was shut and put a dent big enough to see, and i really dont care.. a dent is a dent, doesnt affect per…

Yeah you can check, but I don't think AppleCare covers accidental damage. SafeWare Insurance does cover accidental damage. they quoted me $150/yr. with NO deductible for $2600 cove…

I just recently upgraded to 10.3.2 and now my stupid fan runs all the time. I never had any problems with heat before and I was happy with the settings on the fan in 10.2. Have a…

Have not tried it and I hope Apple changes the fan settings on the next update. I agree that it does get annoying that the fan turns on everytime it's pluged in and i'm just usi…

I dropped my month-old powerbook! Augh! It was in a Tucano second skin, I was just putting it back on the shelf, it slipped out of my hands and fell five feet to a hard wooden fl…

I feel for ya brother.

Not dropped mine yet, but you know that feeling you get when you nearly drop it... I get that often and I swear to be more careful.

The damage looks minimal, but just like with "minor scratches" in cars, it _hurts_ a lot. How bad did it look before the fix?
