Pros: Nice looking Cons: Small hard drive, trouble connecting to the internet, problems handling java and shockwave
The apple i-book is a very good idea. The idea behind it was to make an ultra-trendy light weight and functional notebook computer to catch the sales trend that was started by its sister product the i-mac. But, and it is a big but, this product wasn't...

Pros: Stylish design; easy to setup and use; very well made Cons: Only one USB port; no FireWire port; only one speaker
First of all, it should be noted that I have the Japanese edition of the iBook. Other than a different keyboard layout and the Japanese OS, it's the same as the US version.
I was so glad when they released the iBook SE. I had wanted to get an...

The most attractive thing however is the screen that extends over the entire top...

Pros: Excellent graphics best I've seen, light and thin Cons: Overheats quickly, mouse sticks, poor keyboard, fast battery consumption, cluttered on the left, poor sound
As I write this opinion with my apple iBook I think to myself about the money I wasted. I thought this laptop was what I wanted and was looking for but it is basically useless to me.....for now anyway. I see all of these raving reviews for it but...

Pros: A good, easy to use, Mac laptop. Cons: Software can be hard to find, but that's a given with Macs.
This little guy is quite expandle. I've since upgraded just about everything on it. However, it all is not without a high cost, as Macs are prone to being. If you don't mind paying the few extra bucks, it's definetly worth it. You get a system that's...

Pros: Nice design, long battery life, good OS. Cons: reset button hard to get at, BAD speaker, paying mostly for color
I recently purchased the new iBook special edition because I was going to be away from home for the summer and I didn't want to have to lug a desktop computer back and forth. I also became interested in the Apple Macintosh platform at this time, and I...

Pros: See above. Cons: Pricy, but worth it. No infrared support. Few inputs aside from a single USB.
Not needing the extras included with the PowerBook (Firewire for DV Cameras), but needing a powerful portable computer, the iBook was an easy choice for my next computer. It has the rock solid OS 9 powering its G3 366 processor and an ample 6 gigabytes...

Pros: easy to use, portable, CD-rom drive Cons: no floppy disk, heavy
I've had a PC for five years. The same PC. It was never top of the line, even when it was new. I managed to make it last for five years, but by the beginning of this summer it was obvious to me that it would not make it to college. It had started to...

Pros: Great Quality, reliable machine Cons: Small monitor, no VGA outs
I think the apple iBook could be the best machine, or the worst machine, all depending on your needs. I personnaly think the ibook is an excellent laptop for the average user. Its a good, sturdy machine for its price.

Pros: 4.9 lbs, CD burner, friendly trackpad, extremely durable, very compact, 500 Mhz G3 Cons: No light for nighttime writing
When you first open the briefcase-sized box the new iBook comes in, you're in awe. Apple is known for its packing with unique designs. The color. That's what hits you first. Smooth, durable, milky white. It's smooth on all edges, aerodynamic and...

Pros: Durability, Portability Cons: Limited power
The iBook is a wonderful computer for a college student on a low budget. For only about $1,500 I was able to purchase my ibook (blueberry color) from MacZone.com. While the iBook is a good purchase for what I'm looking for it may not be the right thing...

Pros: cute, easily upgraded, fast Cons: doesn't support most software
I received a blueberry ibook for graduation a few months ago. Granted, I was already biased towards Macs; I was raised on them. But the ibook has exceeded my expectations.
The ibook is a very fast computer and supports all Mac software well. The...

Pros: excellent performance, easy use Cons: difficulty connecting non-USB peripherals
I bought this machine because my Powerbook G3 broke and repairs are often inconvenient and sketchy on out-of-warrantee Macs, particularly if you live in the hinterlands, as we do. I use the ibook for word-processing and graphics and plan to use it with...

Pros: speed, easy of use Cons: would like DVD player built in
I travel all the time on business and need a quality computer that I can take with me. I've had Powerbooks before and love the Mac platform, so the iBook was definitely the way to go for me.
This is a rock solid machine that has done very...
