Pros: Big screen, looks great, long battery life Cons: its a mac
Well, I’ve gotten into college and now its time to celebrate! I have decided to treat myself to a brand new laptop. I have a couple in mind including ones by Dell, Hp, Micron and Gateway. My friend had just gotten the new G4 Titanium Powerbook and had...
Pros: Light, tough, amazingly huge screen, built-in support for DV, wireless networking, dual-monitor Cons: Smallish HD on $2500 model, no more dual-battery, still uses software DVD decoding.
-sigh- Finally, a capable computer from Apple that won't be called "fruity" or "girly."
The first PowerBook was released in 1991 and ever since then it's been a steady climb out of the land of small screens, wimpy batteries, and teensy hard...
Pros: fast and easy to haul around Cons: scratches easily
My first Computer review. Here goes nothing………
I was never an Apple fan until someone very close to me started a job there. All of a sudden a iMac was within my reach and in my house. I began slowly playing on it until the time...
Pros: Good hardware: Elegant, thin, lightweight design Cons: Bad software: MacOS. Not much software for OS X yet. Pricey.
First off, let me say that I'm a long time PC user, but I have used Apples/Macs in the past. So I should provide an objective review of the PowerBook without the heavy Apple favoritism.
Pros: Stunningly beautiful yet practical, fast and furious, draws compliments everywhere Cons: Puny standard hard drive and memory for standard 400mhz model.
A thing of beauty that's practical too
It's hard to understate the visual appeal of this thing. From the shiny metal to the thinness of the case and brightness of the screen, it feels more like an art object than a computer.
Pros: Sleek styling, power, battery life, OS X....the list goes on and on Cons: Price, heat
With this laptop you get everything, are forced to take the most minimal sacrifices for not being tied to a desk, and have the pleasure of using a machine as well designed as it is engineered and constructed. I'm racking my brains to find good...
Pros: Stylish, beautiful, sleek, fast, powerful. Cons: Temperamental in OS9, loud, runs hot, very fragile
I have a love/hate relationship with my Ti Apple PowerBookG4 over the past 2.5 years. As a graphic designer and electronic musician, I'm a slave to Apple. I've been using Apple Computers since the 2nd grade waay back in the Apple IIe days. People can ...
Pros: Superb screen; blazing performance; small and lightweight; unmatched style Cons: Scratches easily; screen can get dirtied by keyboard
The Price is Right, The Time is Now
With the recent (8/01) price drops on Apple's Titanium Powerbooks, the time has never been better to get your hands on one of these sleek metallic beauties. I've had mine for over four months, and I've...
Well, despite my numerous protests, my girlfriend went and bought a laptot computer. "Don't do that - a desktop is much cheaper ! You'll be able to get more for much less !", I said in vain. When I found out she was not only buying a laptot, but a Mac, I...
Pros: Nice compact screen. Cons: a little on the heavy side
Apple Computer announced last week two new models in its PowerBook laptop line. The one that drew the most attention was the industry's first laptop with a gargantuan 17-inch screen. But the company also announced its smallest laptop ever: a petite...
Pros: Size, Apple, OS X, Final Cut Pro, iMovie Cons: Heat dissipation, limited specialty software, keyboard noise, and... it's fragile
Well, if you are reading this, then I hope I will be able to provide some helpful insight. Especially, if you are considering jumping from an Intel-Windows machine.
First, let me preface this by stating that I do work in both media and law....
Pros: thin, light, stylish, large 15inch screen, DVD Cons: may set off bomb detectors, pricey (especially for mid- to high-end models)
What’s an inch thick, weighs just over 5 pounds, is made of pure titanium, and kicks some serious PC booty? That’s right, the Apple PowerBook Titanium G4.
OK, I admit it, I am a Mac-addict, and I make no apologies for it. Over the years I...
Pros: Beautiful, light, and incredibly quiet Cons: Expensive, scratches easily.

Pros: Clearly its looks! All around great laptop! Cons: None
As a typical college student, I wanted a laptop that I could bring to class and take notes, take to the library and listen to mp3s and write papers when actually checking out the girls. As a typical trendy college student, I wanted a small laptop to be...
Pros: Sexy, fast, quiet, big screen, very long battery, great keyboard Cons: Expensive, hot
Sure, it’s gorgeous, but how does Apple’s PowerBook G4 compare to similarly-priced PCs? Very well, and that’s not even taking into account its devilish good looks.
In my laptop search, I looked for the best value among high-performance Mac and...
Take a high-performance PowerPC G4 processor, add a wide-screen display, and enclose it all in a lightweight titanium case. Apple has just created the...More at eBay
