Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!! Finally. I've been holding out for this day since January and it's finally here. I guess I wanted 1536x1024, but this will do fine. The 1MB L3 …

Man, I was really hoping for 1534x1024 (that's what you get if you scale 834 up to 1024). However, it makes sense. I'm in the minority of people who likes really high dpi screens…

What a morning! Wake up.... go to bathroom, check email... check macminute.com. Hmmm, it's sad that that's my morning routine, but it paid off today! I think these new 'Books lo…

It doesn't have DVI instead of VGA, it has both!

yeah but my Palm doesn't have Airport.... maybe dropping irda is more of a nod to bluetooth's role in the future?

I am now $4000 poorer, but the Pbook 800 (1 gig and 60 gig HD) is on the way, baby! I thought briefly about driving 20 minutes to the Apple Store to get the 512/40gig model (they …

Wow, a lot of people have sprung for the Rev C on the first day! I'm impressed! Not to change the subject here, but even after 3 revisions, I'm still happy with my Pismo! It has I…

I don't quite understand why people are SO excited about this new PB - don't get me wrong, it's nice, but it's really not revolutionary. Aside from about 3 more pixels and a sligh…

Geforce 4 with 64Mbs would have been better. Apple should dump ATI.

Pfft. Have you heard of Samba! Quote: Originally posted by patrickjketelaar: <STRONG> Hey, Apple has this great new thing, much faster, and works better. AIRPO…

No IrDA port? Now I feel better that I bought Rev B with an IrDA port to Synchronize with my Palm although I have to boot Palm Desktop in OS 9. The new PB looks excellent to me. Au…

Well 'mate' your not giving the Australian dollar enough justes. It is actualy like .53. It is pretty funny that the 'Faster' powerbook is more than $2,000AD cheaper in the USA t…

I bought a 550 in early March. Last Friday Apple agreed that they would treat it as DOA owing to a recurrently faulty Power Adapter. I was told by them today that they have ordere…

Well, after upgrading to OS 9.1, I opened the powerbook password security control panal, set a password and shut down. NOW it will not restart, I get a blank screen with the cursor…

I have the same problem. My 2 year old Lombard is dead (or seems dead). However if MacOS9.1 is to blame I don't now. Heres what happened: 1) Im sitting on my sofa surfing, when th…

Guys.....please tell me this is not a MAJOR lombard problem, I just bought one off of ebay. I'm definetely going to be using OS X 1.0 on it when March 24 hits, and if 9.1 is causin…

I upgraded the Lombard I use at work to OS9.1 when it was first released and I've not had a single problem. I use Communicator, Office 98, Eudora, Firewire 2 Go , and a KeyspanUSB…

by chance did you guys try booting off of a CD? i dont know if this will work, but maby you can reinstall OS 9, or maby even OS 8.x? just an option?

I am the East Carolina Apple Campus Rep and I downloaded OS 9.1 for all my mac's. I put it on my PowerBook G3 Bronze, ibook and older 333mhz imac. I have had no problems with mine …

problem solved!!!!! disconnected the harddrive, booted off CD "would not even smile with the HD on", reconnected the HD just after it started booting, Ran Disk warrior, disabled th…
