Pros: Stylish, great display, stable with highly respectable performance Cons: OUCH! it gets hot!
Ok folks, here’s how the story goes.
Once upon a time Adi got into computers, he started building his own and generally began a learning curve that would last up until this present day. He would upgrade and update while slowly but surely...

Pros: Huge screen, fast processor, great reliability, and a name you can trust, Apple. Cons: Nothing
I bought this computer on eBay for around one-half of what it is worth. And the speed will just blow you away. Now, you may think that a processor of 500MHz is all that much at all. But remember, Apple's processor's bus lines in the G3 are shorter, that...

Pros: Fast, great screen, reliable, ports, easy upgrade. Cons: Keeping it clean
I have been using Mac since the 80's and I do prefer them. I am not comparing this to PC laptops as I did not even consider them.
I had one of these Powerbooks at work for a while but then had to return it to my office.
One day I saw an ad at...

Pros: QUICK Cons: TOO MANY PROBLEMS
Just like everyone else watching the keynotes for MacWorld San Francisco, I drooled over the new features Apple will be offering called 'iTools.' The iTools provide email (username@mac.com), web page creation and hosting, storage space, and online...

Pros: all Cons: none
I learned from a client that when he was in the Army they used to take the batteries and stick them in the freezer so that they would discharge and you could get more use out of them. If your computer battery is hitting it’s last let I highly recommend...

Pros: Built-in Firewire, USB... crisp display; see text Cons: Software instability; sometimes hard to find Mac software for certain applications
My conversion came through a friend who had also been a capable and devoted PC user. He purchased an iMac and encouraged me to look at Macs when I was considering the purchase of a laptop. So, here I sit, writing this review on the very computer that...

Pros: Fast, stable, great screen, excellent expansion and connectivity. Cons: A little heavy. Gets pretty warm.
I so love this computer. I have had quite a few Macs, and this is my third powerbook (following an old 160 and the first generation Powerbook G3). I have been impressed with it since day one. The specs are: 500mhz G3 processor, 14" TFT screen, 12 gig...

Pros: Fast, Reliable,powerhouse, iMovies, Awesome Screen Cons: Not a TiG4
Yes, there is a new Ti4 on the market. But to meet my given budget, I got the Powerbook G3 400 (2000) 320mb,10gb,56k,DVD, Firewire. This is the last series before the TiG4 came out. I was a bit leery in that I had to move into the PC world for some...

Pros: Small, Fast & Affordable Cons: Need to upgrade the memory
This computer has everything you will ever need. With a 14.1 size monitor built in DVD-ROM, small and VERY easy to use operating system. I work on Mac's for freelance and work on PC's for a full time job as a Graphic Designer. I will take a Mac over a...

Pros: Powerful, expandable, large and bright screen, quality hardware, great battery life Cons: none
I needed a laptop for law school. The Apple PowerBook G3 was the perfect solution.
As I planned on taking class notes and writing all my papers on the machine, I knew I would be staring at the screen for hours on-end. The 14.1 inch active...

Pros: Now in the spring of 2001 at $1799.00, this laptop is a great buy Cons: the latch that holds the screen comes loose after heavy use
If this were a few months ago and this laptop was priced at $2499.00, even with all its good features, I would give it only four stars because shelling out 25 big ones is steep.
Now that the superior G4 laptop has come out, some Mac catalogs...

Pros: Apple need I say more?
Cons: Dosent have windows on it.
This is a great education laptop computer. I would recommend this for anyone who needs a computer but does not have the space for it. Like kids at dorms at college and stuff like that. Even though it isn’t all that powerful it is still enough to...

Pros: good color and appearence Cons: bad keyboard
when my friend first bought this laptop, he thought it would be good. Instead, it wasnt. He told me about its pros and cons. It is expensive and not worth the money. This laptop has a bad modem and a bad keyboard. Yet, dont get me wrong, this isnt...
