Apple PowerBook G4 ... WLAN : 802.11b/g, Bluetooth - MacOS X 10.3 - 17" Widescreen TFT 1440 x 900 ( WXGA+ ) / A study in power and functionality, packaged in a thin and light enclosure that's a pleasure to open in public.

How to choose? If you're the kind that takes your notebook everywhere, you'll appreciate the ultra trim, ultralight 12-inch PowerBook. Portability meets power in the 15-inch model, with a faster processor, Gigabit Ethernet, FireWire 800, optical digital audio and a new display that boasts a resolution of 1440 by 960 gorgeous pixels.

 ... Macbook Air is the greatest compact laptop either - thinness is not the most important dimension in a latop. The 12" Powerbook is basically the same size as a US 'letter' piece of paper, meaning it slips inside your bag with ease, and still gets jealous gazes from the owners of more modern but stupidly oversized laptops. If you don't mind a small screen (only a problem for watching movies with more than one more person or doing big files in Photoshop) you'll love the compact design and lightweight body....more

Premium Review Apple PowerBook G4: I'm keeping it until Apple build another 12" (208 words)

The 12" Powerbook G4 is, my mind, a phenomenal little laptop, and until Apple goes to the trouble of designing and building a Macbook Pro with a 12" screen, I'm not going to be upgrading. No longer in production, the 12" Powerbook could probably be found for a good price second hand. I've used mine for academic work - typing essays, papers etc and frequent graphical work in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign etc. It's true that compared with modern computers, the processor is now outclassed, and I generally try to keep my high-end graphics work to other machines, but as a day to day laptop the Powerbook is superb. Don't be fooled by ...

Crowned Review Twelve Inches of Portable Computing Sex (1286 words)

There are two types of people in this world - those who love Apple Macs, and those who are wrong. i jest, of course. Mac devotees love being part of a select group as much as PC users find Mac-people cliquey and, for all i know, snobbish. If you ask me, we Mac-ophiles have plenty to be snobbish about, but we'll come to that shortly... GORGEOUS Macs tend to be things of beauty, and the G4 PowerBook range is no exception. The 12" model shares the sleek "Titanium" appearance of its larger relatives (the aluminium casing is tough, light, and an effective radiator for the heat the machine generates), but packs the same power into ...

Premium Review Apple PowerBook G4: Yes. You must have one. (470 words)

It’s obvious when you have fallen head-over heels for a product. It penetrates your every thought. Before you own it, you spend every spare moment looking at in magazines, researching it on websites, gazing at it through windows. And when you finally own it, you give it a name. My 17” inch is called “God”. It demands that sort of respect. And very few who see this piece of kit argue with that title. It’s a beautiful product to use. Compared to an ibook it’s like comparing Ferrari with Vauxhall. There is something tangibly nicer about the feel of the keyboard, the way it opens, and the way it shuts. . The off-the-peg model now comes under two grand ...
