Sweet little machine

by scottar , Jun 01 '03
Pros: Great portability, tremendous OS and included software, a lot value/features for the money.
Cons: Should ship with more memory.
I recently upgraded from a 500mhz iBook to a 800mhz combo drive 12.1-inch iBook and love it. Had my Airport wireless network set up in about three mouse clicks and was surfing the web -- and printing -- wirelessly in under 5 minutes. Then I downloaded...

Perfect little laptop

by driestone , Sep 17 '03
Pros: Well priced, small and usable
Cons: Can't operate with screen closed, no mic input
I bought an iBook as a good little portable machine to show clients their work or my portfolio items. Later I ended up bringing it with me to do onsite work for a client. Although it is a little laggish compared to my 933Mhz G4 desktop, it really does do ...

One of the most practical and affordable portable solutions

by kramerarch , Feb 13 '03
Pros: Unmatched portability, rock solid operating system, beautiful design
Cons: Slightly sub-par construction, case scratches easily
The current version of the iBook is Apple Computer's best effort to date to provide un-matched portability at an attractive price. The 12" iBook is the size that a laptop SHOULD be, just small enough to fit in a briefcase or bookbag and take up no more...

Everything a laptop should have

by kenikov , Apr 11 '03
Pros: Good battery life, compact, tough, and good looking.
Cons: None too significant.
The iBook is everything that a laptop should have. Not many laptops are as compact, has as good battery life, fair price, CD-RW drive and is tough enough for traveling.

A good amount of attention has been taken from the iBook after the...

A Laptop for Airline Travel

by gst88 , Apr 12 '03
Pros: Great for travelers. Great features. User friendly.
Cons: More expensive then other laptops. Mac software more expensive. Less software titles available for Mac.
If you have ever had to lug around a lap top you will appreciate this small, light and extremely well equipped computer.

As an airline employee who has to pass through airport screening on almost a daily basis, I needed a computer that could...

Former PC user here--I will never look back! REVISED PLEASE READ!

by em1164 , May 31 '03
Pros: A real head turner. Extremely easy to use.
Cons: Should ship with an AirPort card.
I initially got my iBook because I wanted to explore the Mac's. Everyone in my family has been Mac users and I knew I had to see why. I ordered it through a loan, and it went over the loaned amount by just $87 dollars. When I called Apple they said...

Fantastically portable

by Jaharmi , Sep 19 '03
Pros: Small size and portability, all-in-one solution, durability
Cons: Limited screen real estate
I am primarily a Macintosh user, although I use Windows-, OpenVMS-, and UNIX-based computers in the course of my work. I am in technical support, so I would say I'm a little more advanced in my computer knowledge, and demanding of my computers, than the a ...

sleek, powerful full-featured notebook

by bornoffire1 , Feb 28 '03
Pros: magnificent construction, beautiful display, CD-R/RW, DVD-ROM, good price, excellent battery life
Cons: G3 processor perhaps a bit dated
I own a new flat-panel iMac, and when my girlfriend was considering a new computer, she looked no further than the new iBook. I had second thoughts about the iBook simply because it employs a last-generation processor (G3), but after putting it through...

So White and Pristine it's Competition for your Fridge

by catherar , Jul 29 '03
Pros: Beautiful piece of hardware
Cons: Not as easy to switch from IBM as stated
When I first began shopping for a computer, I had a couple of things to decide. First, I decided th ...

Buyer Beware

by rozray2467 , Apr 18 '03
Pros: You'll want to read this one before you buy an Apple ibook
Cons: the plastic keys, battery lock mechanism
Apple support just ain't what it used to be ... if this product has the plastics like the ibook G3 (keyboards and surrounding the battery locking mechanism) .. then watch out. Even the extended warranty won't help you if the plastics break.
