  • With my current 12 inch iBook, I get a regular 41.3 to 43.5 Centigrade reading throughout photoshop, safari, fireworks and director usage. Rarely seems to use the fan, which is nice.
  • I just sold my nice 12 inch little iBook to help relieve the financial burden that my purchase of a near maxed out 17inch powerbook brings. I love my ibook - absoluetly perfect, but I feel like I always need a little bit more room for my document…
    in 12" or 15"??? Comment by ribot June 2004
  • Screen brightness: seems bright enough to me (although, i normally turn it down a couple of notches) and I can only really compare it to my 22" CRT monitor on my desk. Other points to mention: heat-wise, there is a slight warm patch on the ri…
  • red thing - yes, it is a sticker - informing you of what button to press to eject cds/dvds. A number of other things: Bootup time: relatively quite speedy for me at around 37 seconds. Shutdown, restart is almost instantaneous which helps whe…
  • Well, I travelled all the way back home (200 miles), to pick up my recently delivered iBook. Well, what can I say, impressed would be a major understatement! Bluetooth worked instantly with my nokia 3650 (whereas I've been trying to configure m…
  • I'll enquire tomorrow for you - as I have a friend who overclocked his 500Mhz iBook to just over 600. I somehow think it would invalidate your warrenty. I don't think apple would be that stupid.
  • Looks like my package was moving over the weekend Package transporter has now changed to TNT..and it's only 30 miles away. wohoo.. By this time tomorrow, I cant picture myself working away utilising free wireless connections in my town (whilst …

  • Quote: Originally posted by G-News if the clearing of the customs is any indication, I'd expect my and your ibook to be in the same shipment, which leaves me wondering why my page hasn't updated yet. I think this logistics software is running on…
  • Shipment Picked Up\t TAIPEI, TP, TW\t 30 Oct 2003 14:25 Cleared Customs\t TAIPEI, TP, TW\t 31 Oct 2003 06:00 Depart Terminal\t TAIPEI, TP, TW\t 02 Nov 2003 08:30 Arrive Terminal\t LUXEMBOURG, LU, LU\t 05 Nov 2003 10:06 So maybe a few more d…
  • Cool. I ordered mine BTO 4-5 days ago: 12" iBook, 640MB RAM, 60GB HD, Airport Extreme card and internal bluetooth... ..according to the shipping ref, it's just about to leave TAIPEI, TP, TW. Any idea on how long it generally takes to ship to …
  • I too am in exactly the same position... the iBook looks soooo nice (dare I say it, even better than the AlBook), but the RAM limitation worries me a little. The 12" AlBook is the only other option available within my budget (and racksuck space - c…
