  • There are vents on the top? Speakers vent?
  • I've tried many times to use my PB closed with an external monitor and it's never worked.
  • Quote: Originally posted by Ebby I think it is possible with a Porwerbook, but you have to be careful with ventilation. You must have at least a USB keyboard plugged in though. Why would I need to be careful wth ventilation? Quote: Origi…

  • Can any experienced Apple shopper tell us if, since we ordered our PBs on 4/22 (Thursday) and 4/23 (Friday), will Apple ship before 4/30 (Friday), in your opinion? That's 6 business days for my computer... Does apple usually ship more often towards …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Messiahtosh I could not resist, and my parents offered me an amount I could not refuse, towards the payment of my comp. I was all set to get the 12'' PowerBook but I went ahead and got a loaded up 15'' with all the tri…
  • Quote: Originally posted by maninmac I marched back, returned it all, and got a shiny new 15" and an iCurve. Personal opinion of course, but I certainly would not be able to substitute that 15" for any standard 17" CRT/LCD or larger. Buying a…
  • I wouldnt call that 17" a big display....
  • A damn shame... On the online website, does apple only require your word that you are a member of an educational organization? Also--are the new PBs shipping right away? Is this a first? Don't people usually wait AT LEAST 2 months?
  • the 15" superdrives may have dropped $100, but they also only offer $200 in education discounts on it. it was $2599 before, but apple offered $300 in educational discounts.... tsk tsk
  • are the 15" superdrives more expensive than before?
  • why wouldnt apple be advertising the new powerbooks on the frontpage instead of the ibooks? also, there are iron and plastic powerbooks??
  • whats a 16:10 lol
  • Yes yes my wording was horrible, and made me look like an idiot, but I know very well what a codec is, and that xvid and divx are not formats. Anyways, next question, and what I really MEANT to ask--is there any software available for macs that can …
  • I wouldn't waste my time with Sony DVD-R/+R drives anymore. The lot fo them have difficulty reading some DVD discs. For whatever reason, it reads *most* discs perfectly fine, but some they just cannot read, such as the LotR Extended DVD Edition. Man…
  • /me crosses his fingers
  • Yeah, there's no sense in waiting for new product releases, otherwise we'd never buy anything. There's always new stuff comin' out. So I guess now I'm wondering--does Apple offer any trade-in type deals? Or after a certain amount of time?
  • You mean like those new powerbooks that are going to be released with improved specs? Haha I don't want to wait until June. I hope those new PBs come out within the month. Too bad I've already got an Ipod for that package deal...
  • OK downfall wasn't the right word. More like one of their only faults, or mistakes so far. And the other thing, they need to let students know about their discounts. I didn't even know about them until my friend bought a a PB and got a discount. …
  • Good point. But with these new G4's coming out, which I hope is not just a false rumor, I will definately be buying an upgraded 15" superdrive powerbook. One month.....
