In the PC world (and for G5 computers) this is true. However, the G4 does not support a DDR bus. Hence,…

Virtual PC, at least in the Connectix incarnations, was optimized for 512k cache, so any machine with only 256k, whether L2 or L3, is noticeably slower running VPC than a machine w…

The 17" version A had L3 while the 17" Version B has L2.
Here is what Barefeats has to say:

Notice also that the Ghz Ti surpasses the Ver A 17"…

Don't let the door hit you on the way out!
Kidding aside, Scott-- you did get AppleCare, and you're not paying a cent, right?

And what operating system will you run on this IBM laptop??
Hi Apple, it's Scott. My Powerbook has a problem, AGAIN — #7
IBM makes the highest quality laptops on the planet, but they're also the most expensive...and you have to run XP. Is it worth it, Scott?
Everyone should use the tool that best en…

My last experience with IBM laptops was with 4 Thinkpad i1200s. They were rather unpleasant little machines, with ME installed. I can understand them being buggy and unreliable bec…

Scotttheking, a program I would recommend to you is Norton Ghost. It makes an image of your entire computer "programs, files, registry" and you can put this on a cd, dvd, or even …

Do what I did. Call up Apple, tell them you're tired of sending your Ti in for repair every two months, that this is unacceptable, and demand a new laptop. Thats how I got my AlBoo…

Your machine may qualify for Apple's trade in program. It'll get you $700 towards a new machine. Or you could just demand a new machine.

As much as I love Apple, I have to admit that situations such as yours Scott certainly show that Apple is far from perfect.
I wouldn't be too hesitant about demanding a new machi…

Frankly, I've been shocked by the recent posts coming from Scott. Are we at all certain that he hasn't been replaced with a Microsoft cyborg?

The box is here, I'll be shipping the laptop out Monday. There are 3 reasons I didn't ask for a replacement. First, it'd be very hard to get stuff like my ram, airport card, and …

My TiBook is 2 years, 9 months old and has been repaired a total of 7 times. In a fou…
