Pros: Affordable, Super fast

Another winner for Apple!

It's fast. It's beautiful. And still priced little high.
(only if it were selling for $2999...)

Pros: light easy to transport
Cons: crashed often on me

I was so excited when I got computer that I thought I was a leader in the age of technology. I soon found out that without a true computer guru I was in trouble. My laptop G3 crashed 3 times in the year that I had it and I had to get a friend in the...

Pros: Fantastic design, ease of use, hot swappable battery/bays
Cons: Price, OS stability

Never judge a book by it's cover some say. Appearances can be deceiving say others. Looking at Apple's latest efforts in the laptop arena one is hard-pressed to abide by any of these sayings - the PowerBook's design is downright beautiful. Matte black,...

Cons: sometimes a bit plastic feel, needs more memory.

Pros: Fast, gorgeous active matrix display, fast, unexpectedly nice keyboard
Cons: all PowerBooks should come with at least 128MB RAM; 6 gig hard drive could be bigger

My Pismo (400mhz) arrived yesterday from MacMall (with a free 128MB of RAM for a grand total of 196MB RAM) and with only a slight glitch today (during software install, my trackpad stopped working, but shutting the computer down and waiting a while to...

Yet another stunning computer by Apple. The Powerbook G3 gives you the speed, screen size, and functionality of a desktop with the size and transportability of a laptop.

Cons: none

Cons: no SCSI port, only one year warranty.

I have the great fortune of owning a Powerbook G3 300 for a year now and not once have I had any reason to complain. Even serious problems (a fading of the LCD screen) was fixed and returned to me in under a week. Pretty good considering it had to be...

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: Very powerful, Mac ease of use, and light (use it anywhere!). Screen is clear and sharp.
Cons: Case feels somewhat fragile. The 6GB hard drive becomes annoyingly loud after several months. The screen could be brighter.

It was getting time to replace my old 603e-based Mac with something newer and faster. Plus, I was looking to free up space in my home. The 2000 PowerBook offered all the features I was looking for, and had just come down in price. It is blazingly...

Pros: Fast, Powerful, Sleek… It plays DVDs!
Cons: I eventually have to sleep

Before I purchased this computer I checked out the negative opinions on epinions.com (great website:) The negative opinions that I have read were basically from people who don't understand computers. One word MEMORY. You need lots of it for your...
