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.

Yep I saw it again it was an AD for Smith Barney. All silver back blue ice Apple in middle. It looks almost like an iBook only a little bigger and not as rounded.

Could it be? PB G4 for Seybold?! Here's hoping.... Thanks for mentioning the sighting, Elderloc.

I really don't think there will be a Power Book G4 at Seybold. I think if it hits it will be mid september. Why else would they cancel the Keynote broadcast?? We know Steve all to…

Fer God sakes, don't base your buying decisions on rumors and maybes - I wanted to buy a PowerBook for over a year, and, while it was money that made me wait that long, I remember …

There's a bit of a frenzy going on over at Apple Insider...here's the URL: http://forum.appleinsider.com/ubb/Fo...ML/005400.html

I don't care what the rumours say, or the hearsay, or the bloody typos at some of the sites. You can't put a G4 in a PowerBook yet! Have you felt the Pismos? They get damn hot - he…

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…

Wow, reading this reminds me of a few years ago when all of a sudden the power supply in my dock died right after coming home from the road. I think the Duo 210 was on and when I …

Are you talking about a minidock or a desktop dock? The only way you should be able to connect to a desktop dock while the Duo is "powered on" is while it's asleep, in which case t…

Yeah, get a 280c to replace it. The Dock may still be OK. Try resetting the power manager and PRAM first, though. You may not have hurt anything.

Herbal tea is only good for people (so they say...), not PowerBooks... You really should stick to CD's and battery acid (in the right places that is...) Salvage the HD, take it in …

I've spilled liquids plenty of times on my PowerBooks, but it's usually only on the keyboard which can easily be cleaned out. Contrary to what Cipher said, the problem is probably…

I did the same thing a few weeks ago on my Wallstreet, but it was coffee with lots of sugar added http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/frown.gif Unfortunately the repair center said t…
