Hey iJon,
I'd like to see the 12" powerbook next to a 12" ibook and a 14" ibook.. those are the 3 I am trying to decide between.
thanks!
thats cool man, i was in a rush and then when i got home and looked at the pictures i was like "what the hell, the ibook looks smaller. but like i said, I will take much more accurate pictures saturday when i will be at work all day, i just gave those for teasers, there is another thread on this forum with some good pictures as well, i will do more comparisons with the ibooks and powerbooks.
oh hell yeah, once i sell my powerbook g3 im gettting one of these babys. the new material feels much more durable than the old ti's. the airport and ram is much much easier to get too. I was about to take some pictures of how to get the airport in but my battery went bad. the 12 inch powerbook has little rubber thingies at the top, this means the screen NO longer touches the keyboard, yeaa! the sleep light indicator is now on the button that you push to open the computer. The hinge is very flexible, on the old ibooks they didnt bend back easily. the powerbooks you can bend back and forth like string cheese which is very nice. the only thing i didnt like about the powerbook is that the lockdown is at the bottom of all the ports. since the lockdowsn arent very flexible, the wire will go across all the other ports, no biggie though, i really dont care because i wont be locking down my computer. let me know if you ahve any more questions. oh yeah and the other guy i read on some other thread was right, you do not have time to replace another battery into the computer while it is in sleep mode.
