    New Macs real cheap "is it for real"

    At the bottom of the page in light grey type: *Prices on this site are estimates or our target goals for negotiation._ The actual price of the computer will not be known until all reservations are taken and the order is placed with the reseller. So, don't look at the price we have. Just hope...

    New Macs real cheap "is it for real"

    how long is the wait for the computer? I understand that you save up ALL the "reservations" so you can get the bulk/volume discount, but how long could that take and what is the amount you need for that order goal? Also, why do you not have the 12" Superdrive PB? The only thing I could see was...

    HELP! I need a new ISP...

    I can pay $7 a month for 25 hrs a month or pay $20 to $25 for unlimited access. And why would I go local if I can get something better from a National company ie Earthlink

    HELP! I need a new ISP...

    NetZero has never supported Mac http://www.netzero.net/support/start/requirements.html And Earthlink gives you the $11 price for the first six months only. Where in the world are the $10 unlimited dial-ups? Does Cable Modem/DSL have that much impact? (rhetorical question)

    Why the 12" PB bashing!?!

    I don't understand that? Why should Apple add the super-duper fasterest Firewire or the lit keyboard? That is like asking Honda why they don't put the m3000 or NSX engine into their base Civic. You pay for what you get.

    Why the 12" PB bashing!?!

    I can't understand the 12" PB bashing that is happening all over the Mac world. I know it can only go to 640 Ram I know it is only 867 Mhz. I know the bus speed is not up to snuff. But does this mean it's any less able to be worked on? I am currently running a G4 400Mhz with 512 Ram. It has a...

    Which PowerBook G4 do you like?

    if I had to pay for it. It is nice and small. Anything is faster than the machine I have at work. It hooks up to a Larger monitor. And a Super drive. I can work on a 12" monitor if needed. Now if someone said, I want to buy you one. I would get the 17".

    Do you like / dislike the new Powerbooks?

    Personally, I love the idea of the 12" and the 17". Being a designer, i need my screen real estate, so a 17" is nice. BUT, I prefer an external screen. I always have my screen @ 1600x1200. That is why I would go for a 12" w/Superdrive because it is inexpensive. All that power in a small...

    Apple is on the war path against Gateway...

    Gateway released their plasma TV a while back. This has not sit well with Apple, especially with the newly released 17" PB. However by the end f the year, Apple will be shipping this!

    Video newbie...

    Elderly is one of my favorites. They have the cheapest Gibson Granadas, Earl first banjo. If I didn't love me Deering so much, I would have purchased one from them a couple years back. Yes I did. And the guy can still play like nobody's business. You gotta love it. I was reading that after...

    Them's the apples I like (No pun intended)...

    That 12" PowerBook ROCKS! It supports a 1600 by 1200 Monitor. WHAHOOO! All that a Superdrive and very compact. Forget the Tablet /Video iPod. This is like mini-monster computer. Me likey!

    Not a tablet/Not necessarily an iPod says LoopRumors

    The Newton has a great size screen. I have a 130 and it would be great for viewing video, etc. LoopRumors.com is good. I like reading their stuff, but at 11pt we will know if they were right...

    He had BAD experience. About as bad a the O'Grady PowerPage eBay incident. eBay is fine, but there are some scams.

    Video newbie...

    Web design just doesn't pay well (even if you are good.) Money is tight, but I really would like to save my kids' movies in digital. I do play banjo. Scruggs style. I have a Deering Maple Blossom, no mods. I love it the way it is. Bluegrass is my thing. Earl Scruggs and Jim Mills (banjo for...

    my powerbook got stolen

    eBay isn't all bad. There are some very reputable people and vendors. But some people have had some problems. Basically, look on eBay but only people with many reviews and no cash, money orders, etc.

    Apple to introduce video iPod

    They are mentioning the same thing, a video iPod but the size of a Newton. I think Apple would be stupid to get rid of the iPod. There are too many people who like to carry their tunes around. At the same time, there are many people who like their movies and would like to take them around...
