I don't think I can agree w/ everything wizzbang has said, but I must defend XP's stability compared to OS X. I use XP every day at work on two different computers, manipulating l…

I recently bought a 12" Pb. It does everything I expect of it since it's not one of the higher end 15" or 17" Pb's. From reading the first part of your review: Quote: Origi…

This guy is about as smart as Paul Thurrott. He probably thinks because he could get a celeron with "more giga hurts" the mac stuff is eons behind in hardware terms. Why are you …

I think I'm going to get a tattoo. It's going to say "European prices include VAT, US prices do not." It's going right across my chest.

I have to second much of the original posters opinions of the 12" PB and OSX. I also must give him a little bit of support here. Though, I don't agree with everything said. I boug…

Why buy it in Europe? – It's a lot more expensive than in the US e.g.: UK 20GB iPod: $377 (£ 209) US 20GB iPod: $299

Can I ask why you use Finder Copy (which seems to be a major source of your complaints)? Are you duplicating a file? Why not Command-D and avoid the paste step? Are you duplicat…
