Better than Anchorman! :D

Oh wait, almost anything is better than Anchorman. :p :D
 
Mine arrived, too!

I just spoke to my wife, and my new PB is sitting at home waiting for me. It's going to be one looooong afternoon!
 
What a masterpiece!!!!!
Now I just got to learn how to use it :)
Man am I lost!!!! I had to go to 3 diff stores to get a phillips #00 screwdriver to add the ram. I got an extra 512 in there now. Someone in my office building has wireless and I can get a real faint signal lol. Now I'm calibrating the battery burning it down, watching "MIRACAL" as I finally can get some work done.
 
what type of Powerbook? 12", 15"? more impressions!!! Why did you choose the Powerbook you chose? I'm going nuts figuring out which Powerbook to buy!

I'm not gonna have much use for most of the 15" features other than:

1.) bigger screen
2.) backlit keyboard
3.) better video card (for occasional gaming)


is that worth the extra $462 pricetag for choosing the 15"?



congrats on your Powerbook!! :)
 
rareflare,
I have the 12PB 1.33 combo with 768 ram.
I went with the 12 because:
A- Bang for the buck!!! can't beat it!!!

B- If i want more real estate I'll buy a LCD with the money saved and have both ie ultra portability and real estate when needed!

C- Combo is faster for cd's and I'm going to get an external DVD burner for half the cost and twice the burning speed. I don't have a need to burn dvd's away from home so the external will be fine. And I can wait to buy it!

D- It is great for portability!!!!!!!

I would of loved the back lit keyboard but I didn't "NEED" it!

As for the video, I took a gamble. I'm not a gamer so the jury is out on that one!

as of right now it'll be hard to give an honest impression becasue I'm still in aw :D of the beauty of this baby!!! and I really don't have a clue what i'm doing lol
But I'll keep you posted !!!
 
Congrats on the arrival. I just ordered a BTO 15" PB 1.5GHz, 512mb, Superdrive, 80GB@5400, and ATi 9700 Mobility w/128mb VRAM, not two days ago and have been stricken with the debilitating habit of checking and rechecking my order every 5 minutes. I'm not too enthralled to have FedEx delivering it since from past experiences UPS has always delivered timely deliveries whereas FedEx has sat on my packages in their hubs for days.
 
FedEx was on time

Despite what people say about FedEx, both my iPod and my 15 inch PB arrived a day earlier than the delivery estimate. I couldn't be happier!
 
Well, for some reason, Apple entered the shipment into FedEx's database on the 14th, but it wasn't picked up by FedEx until the 15th. So FedEx now says I'll have it by Jul 19th, 12pm. This is going to be one long weekend! :)
