Pros simple, sleek, easy to use
Cons need to max out RAM for best performance
Recommended it? Yes

UPDATE - 03.16.03
I have since bought a cell phone (Samsung A500 from Sprint) and the compatible SnapSync data cable. I heard that I might be able to use my cell phone as a wireless modem, so I bought the data cable, plugged it in and prayed.

After following some simple... Read full review »

Pros Great design, reliability, ease of use
Cons Heavier than 12-inch model, only have 256 MB RAM
Recommended it? Yes

This bigger iBook is great for almost every person. Exceptional quality blends with a design that only "cool" can describe. When the iBook arrived, I pulled it out of the shipping carton. Then I immediately noticed the white package that housed the iBook.

The iBook comes with the... Read full review »

Good 4 years ago

Pros Easy to learn and use. Built-in wireless and bigger screen than current MacBooks.
Cons Outdated, a bit slower
Recommended it? Yes

Computer is outdated now if looking for high performance laptop. Good for general internet surfing, e-mail, and word processing. If you are looking for a high performance laptop, I would go for a newer Mac (MacBookPro) not this. If you need a laptop for basic functioning, this one works fine. The... Read full review »

Pros Screen clarity, DVD/CD player, iTunes, virus free, bulletproof OS, quiet keyboard, silent...
Cons battery charge, OSX compatibility, sporatic internet connection, dual function F-keys
Recommended it? Yes

I have had my iBook since the last quarter of 2003, and I have been using the internet with it for the past year and a half. This computer has done what I want it to do with very few exceptions, despite those exceptions being pretty annoying.

Let's get to the exceptions first. One thing... Read full review »

Once you go Mac, it's hard to go back

Pros Easy to use, portable, reliable, and all-in-all fun to own.
Cons Why won't my mouse work?!!!!!!
Recommended it? Yes

I've had my iBook for over a year and have been more than pleased with it's performance. It's light (5-6 pounds), fast, and reliable. I use it for web and graphic design, word processing, Internet searching, editing movies, email, and movie/music enjoyment, and it's wonderful. Well, it's wonderful... Read full review »

Know what you need in a machine

Pros Screen quality is excellent for a laptop
Cons Airport card and screen brightness drain the battery far too quickly
Recommended it? No

My reasons for getting a laptop were school work first and foremost, internet second, and music and photo third. I have grown up with pcs, using them mainly for word processing and internet, and I was prepared to continue with what I knew until I stumbled into an Apple store, just to look.

Pros Lightweight-battery life-crisp screen-included software is top notch - gorgeous design
Cons Adding RAM to 640MB is a must - speakers are tiny
Recommended it? Yes

As a university student, I was in the market for something simple but still capable of handling lots of typing and the usual Net surfing, watching DVD's and storing my MP3's.

Having never used Mac OS before I was a little hesitant in buying the iBook; however, after using my brother's... Read full review »

beware of the power cord

Pros great design, ease of use
Cons power cord will break
Recommended it? Yes

Don't get me wrong. This computer is great in many ways. But after about a year, my power cord started fraying at the connector. And I discovered that this wasn't covered by Apple's 3-year warranty (which is pretty expensive). And then I discovered that lo and behold, this has been a problem for a... Read full review »

Apple iBook: A Darned Decent Laptop

byreneesarah Jan 28, 2003
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Intuitive functioning. Visually appealing.
Cons Poor built-in speaker quality. Case scratches easily. Battery case does not sit flat.
Recommended it? Yes

I did a lo of thinking before getting a Mac. I have been using Windows based machines for years, and was worried that using OSX would cause me communication problems in a predominantly "Windows world." It hasn't. I have the 800 mhz iBook with 640 SDRAM. If you buy one of these laptops, don't short... Read full review »
