Pros: Compact, sleek, powerful, world's best OS Cons: Runs hotter, with shorter battery life, than comparable iBooks The Bottom Line: Terrific--not really an improvement over comparable iBooks for most users but still head and shoulders above any Windows notebook. from Shopping.com Pros: Compact, sleek, powerful, world's best OS Cons: Runs hotter, with shorter battery life, than comparable iBooks The Bottom Line: Terrific--not really an improvement over comparable iBooks for most users but still head and shoulders above any Windows notebook. from Shopping.com Pros: Incredible Design, Multitasking wonder, Solid Operating System, Great Applications Cons: Can get somewhat warm under the left palmrest. from Shopping.com Pros: Incredible Design, Multitasking wonder, Solid Operating System, Great Applications Cons: Can get somewhat warm under the left palmrest. No Office Suite included. from Shopping.com This is a great laptop. It's light and sleek with tons of great features. I especially like the built-in Bluetooth, which lets me connect to my printer and PDA without wires. I highly recommend this PowerBook! from Amazon.com Finally retired my Sony Vaio (850Mhz) and made the switch to a powerbook--wanted to do that ever since I realized that Mac OS X is pretty much BSD Unix with a killer desktop. What a great machine this is. from Amazon.com A fantastic ultra portable laptop. I bought the 12" Powerbook G4 1Ghz, and have been blown away by it. It has a good metallic design and its size is very easy to carry around, this is the major disadvantage of larger bulkier notebooks. from Amazon.com Yeah, I know it's a little more money than the knock-off PC clones from Dell and Gateway, but this is a far superior computer. The Mac platform is not only the most powerful one available, it is also the simplest and most versatile - once you learn it. from Amazon.com Other then...you wasted a great deal of money that you could have spent buying this item directly from apple.com. If you are a student or faculty of any kind of accredited school, you could have saved another 200.00$. from Amazon.com Having originally jumped on the Powerbook train when the TIs were introduced, I was way ready to graduate to a faster processor, newer Powerbook. I had a 15" TI and experienced most of the normal complaints one reads about in the various message boards (heat, bad paint). from Amazon.com
