Apple PowerBook G3

Premium Review Not just for Apple freaks; Linux too! (256 words)
by chrishow - written on 24/10/00 (70 readings)
Rating:

I've owned a PowerBook G3 since it came out; I've got the old fat one. I use a wide variety of computers; PCs, Macs, Desktops, Laptops and this is the best machine I've ever used (although it's a bit slow compared to the new ones). I run Linux on mine, so don't think I'm just a Mac evangelist, and it performs beautifully. The screen is still the best I've seen on a laptop - it's twice as bright as my (much newer) IBM ThinkPad. (so why did I buy the ThinkPad? I wanted a *tiny* laptop for travel) All the hardware is supported fine under Linux, from the PCMCIA slots to the built in modem to the SCSI port (NB you don't get SCSI on the new ...

Premium Review I love my G3 PowerBook (250 words)
by Orpy - written on 18/08/00 (Very useful, 144 readings)
Rating:

I have owned a G3 PowerBook for about a year and a half and can find little to fault on this machine. It packs a lot of power into a slim design much better than the Windows stuff that I see other commuters on my train using. The design is also miles ahead of the competition. It has a sexy waist that you grip it by and that glowing apple, that is just such a brilliant feature. This is both a workhorse and an attention grabber. DVD watching while commuting never fails to impress the other passengers who sit back in awe as you watch Fight Club for the 33rd time on the 07.32 to Liverpool Street. It is a fast machine. My 400 MHz laptop performs certain processor ...

Premium Review Slimmer, Lighter, Wider & BETTER Than The Sony Viao (664 words)

Rating:

subnote are inferior to laptops in order to gain in areas such as weight and size. However, Apple has now bucked the trend. The Apple PowerBook G4 Titanium, announced at Macworld San Francisco in January 2001 is an amazing feat of engineering. NOT ONLY is it slimmer and lighter than at least the SONY VIAO, which is the best selling sub-ote on the market by the way, BUT IT ALSO has the power, capability and resources of a laptop, but with a screen size about 50% larger than the SONY VIAO. From Apple's Web Site: "Just 1 inch thick and weighing a mere 5.3 pounds, the PowerBook G4 is a heavyweight in an ultralight body - the world?s first notebook ...
