My 15 1.25 has been perfect from day one. No white spots, no bad pixels, no dark spots. Everyone--yes, PC users too--are amazed by the machine and the screen quality. I get complim…
Also, some general advice:
1. If you have a problem that's not too severe, and your stuff is already installed on your new 'Book anyway... keep using it. Get it fixed in a few mon…
I am interested to see this thread. I have a Powerbook titanium 550 that started having uneven illumination after about a year, however it is different from what I am seeing descr…
Yes, I do agree that Apple will most likely fix most issues with the screen. I too can suggest getting a powerbook (albiet I've had my fair share of problems too). I still sugges…
Oh no, not Samsung! They make garbage. I had their multisystem VCR to watch PAL & SECAM movies on my NTSC TV and it died in less than a year. I had a Powerbook yoyo power suppl…
I didn't read all of the posts, but I've seen that before...is the illumination permanent? I've seen it happen from pressure or a temperature change...it goes away after about an …
If any of you G5 owners have a superdrive i would appreciate if you could answer a couple of Q's that has been puzzling me for the last 24hrs.
I currently have an iMac 1Ghz with a …
I can't help with the Sony drive directly, but I can tell you the Pioneer DVR-106D in my dual G5 w/ 10.3.2 will burn DVD+RWs (along with typical DVD-R and DVD-RW) directly from the…
Hi 60-hz
I'm running a DW-U10A that I added to my G4. I haven't tried any +R or +RW disks as other players I have wont read them.
The issue of not working with the TDK's is mor…
Thanks mate,
I took the DVD+RW discs back to the store and got a refund. Popped along to the local computer store and tried to get some DVD-RW discs but they didn't have any, i'l…
Well, so much I love the PowerBook G4 12", it decided to not return the good karma and it finally broken unusable... Long story short:
1. First months of use, very hot, not as muc…
sorry to hear that, man. I have a 12" Rev. A powerbook, and I am amazed at how problem free it is. It seems like every rev. A 12" had major issues!
I've had my 12" for a little …
I have a Pismo and I replaced the battery about 4 months ago and everything has been fine until the last couple of weeks.
My battery is currently at 39% and not charging. If I unp…
I discovered that if I remove the battery, wait a few minutes and reinsert it, it will charge a few percent and then stop. If I remove it once it has stopped charging, the connect…
Uh, oh. You have the same problem I have.
My history runs like this:
I have a PBG3 (BK--Pismo) that I've had for years. I upgraded it to 10.2 and then 10.3. I did the 10.3 upgrad…
And one other thing... did you ever install that intermediate update? It was... hmmm... 10.2.8 that was released and then pulled and re-released? I did. On this machine. It caused …

OK, you're not going to believe this...
I just installed from the original PBG3 restore CD and rebooted. Then I downloaded Battery Reset 2.0 from Apple. (http://docs.info.apple.co…
My Pismo reports 4.18f5 and my 'new' battery is a 'Hi Capacity Power Products' B-5899.
I'm going to try rebooting into classic and see what the behaviour is under classic. Then I …
I have pretty much the same experience with my pismo. After I got the new battery it did recharge for a while, then the lightning rod over the battery in the menu bar would come a…
