To my mind this was a great laptop for university when i was doing my Design course, portable for lectures and had enough power to do all the demanding things with design software. The entire time i have had it, it has never crashed or went wrong and just keeps on ticking went you want it. Simple interface makes this a joy to use and so is ideal ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Apple PowerBook G4 M9689B/A: I'm keeping it until Apple build another 12" (208 words)
by - written on 13/03/08 (Useful, 30 readings)
Rating:

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 - ...  Read the complete review

The Apple Powerbook 12" is, quite simply, the most stunning piece of computing equipment I have ever owned. For a 12" Laptop, there is a phenomenal amount of processing power and efficiency, particularly if you don't do massive amounts of graphic design on a day-to-day basis. The machine is very reliable and has good battery life (as ...  Read the complete review

If you are the type of person who can handle a mac then this is a great mac for you to handle. I got mine for christmas and use it for all my work, games and other hobbies that are to be done on a computer. The wireless internet card means I can go on the internet anywhere where there is a wireless base station. Mine has hardly ever crashed and ...  Read the complete review

The tremendous power of the thing is what keeps me in such awe of it. My very own 17" Powerbook is my baby, if a somewhat overweight and metallic baby, but it is my baby and I adore it. I'm a Fine Art student in London and that is exactly why I have one. I specialise in video work and the massive screen is ideal for clear playback ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

The first thing that strikes you about this laptop is the size, or rather lack of it. Its just 1 inch thick and weighing just over 2Kg, its considerably lighter than most other laptops. There are ther obvious visual differences, including an aesthetically winning titanium redisign of the whole body and screen package. The most prominent ...  Read the complete review

Not only does apple produce the fastest mass production laptop on this planet, it now has in its range a laptop that is better than a sub-note. If you are wondering what a sub-note is, an example would be the SONY VIAO. The sub-note range of computers are a trade-off, this means that the subnote are inferior to laptops in order to gain in ...  Read the complete review
