For the record this is my second 12" Powerbook that I have owned over the past 2 yeas, and I am avery pleased with this particular model. This model is known to "Mac-heads" as Rev.C as it is the third version/edition of the 12" Powerbook line. Being the third revision, Apple has surely ironed out... Read full review »

I've had my Apple PowerbookPC G4 notebook for a year now. It arrived the afternoon before I was supposed to leave for a conference and we set it up in the airport at LAX. When we arrived in Zurich and turned it on, everything worked perfectly and it's continued to do so. Mac OS X is a... Read full review »

WOW! My PowerBook is still running with the rest and best. My profession is a Macintosh technician. Or as what most people call me as the "Mac Surgeon".

Anyways to get to my point my PowerBook goes everywhere I go when I go to fix a Mac or an iPod. It's portable, lightweight and let's... Read full review »

Pros aluminum shell, lightweight, expandability, nothing protrudes from the case
Cons gets a little warm but no so much that it is a big problem
Recommended it? Yes

I just graduated school and wanted to treat myself to a laptop for graduation. I previously had a Compaq 1230 so anything really would have been an upgrade. That said, this laptop blows everything else away. I looked at various brands and decided I wanted a mac. They look cool, are stable, and just... Read full review »

Pros Fast, Portable, Sturdy, Beautiful Apple design, comes with some great software.
Cons Gets warm after extended use but not too much of a problem.
Recommended it? Yes

SIZE:
I completely love this 12" laptop. First of all, I use my computer mainly for graphics and photo-retouching and I personally do not find the screen too small. You just have to keep your windows organized. Anyone who is doing really serious video and animation work is probably using a... Read full review »

Pros It's a Mac, light, slot-loading drive, fast, Panther OS, 5-hour battery, Windows...
Cons Price.
Recommended it? Yes

I just purchased this laptop from CompUSA and have been very happy with it. I used to own a 500MHz iBook and so I am very familiar with OS X.

I did a lot of reasearch including paying less for a PC laptop and decided on the Mac for its beauty, ease of use and virtually crash-free system... Read full review »

Pros Works with whatever you plug into it. Long battery life.
Cons Exclusive. You can't get every game out there.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought my Apple 12 inch Power Book G4 about a year ago and I have to say that I have never been so impressed with a computer in my life. When I bought it, I was worried that it would take me a month to use and even then I would still find myself going back to my Dell, Compaq, or Sony to get a... Read full review »

Best laptop I've EVER had

Pros Powerful, sleek, compact, great battery, good screen, excellent keyboard, wireless
Cons Gets REAL hot in your lap to the point of being uncomfortable to type on
Recommended it? Yes

Being a former PC only-user this was my first Macintosh. I got it because it was the best laptop I found, at this price point. The 4 hour battery, true sleep mode, durable aluminum casing, slot-loading CD/DVD, and of course bluetooth and wireless, were all factors in my purchase decision.

Pros Well-designed, durable, thin, light, great battery life
Cons Smallish monitor, can get hot, more than 256 megs RAM would've been nice
Recommended it? Yes

This is a well-designed laptop. The physical design is both attractive and slim, and very durable; I've had no problems at all in over a year of ownership so far. Compared to many other manufacturers' laptops, it's much lighter and thinner, so easier to carry. The fact that I opted for a 12"... Read full review »
