The original poster was doing a good service posting this. i try to point this out, whenever making memory suggestions as well. Furthermore, Crucial has excellent customer service, and they are probably going to take back anything, if you have…

I strongly believe we'll see updated iBooks and Mac Minis either this week, or next. At Paris? I'm not sure what we'll see. Maybe something else for our homes, or video iPods. One would think they might want to announce some kind of big new cons…

JordanEatWorld, Put a couple DVDs onto the actual hard drive. It will save battery life compared to having the optical drive spin the entire time. Use MacTheRipper.

You should use the "WPA personal" encryption, and not WEP. WEP doesn't do a very good job, but WPA is pretty decent security. Makke - You're correct about the difference between the two. WEP, or preferably WPA, helps secure people from eavesdro…

Yeah, you have to have Tiger, in order for the WebKit to work. Yes, the improvement, in Safari, is significant.

You later idea sounds decent. Amazon also has the 20" Apple Cinema, for just $750 on sale right now. However, I know with coupons, you can probably get a better deal on the Dell, if you want to go that way. I use the current 12 inch Powerbook, wi…

Yes, I installed this several hours ago. No problems.

Yes, your applications will take advantage of it, if you had more memory. A 1GHZ G4 Powerbook is a very nice and capable machine. You'll make it sing even more, if you increase the memory! No, you did not list particularly intensive tasks, but …

I would love to see Pentium -M in the Powerbook, at MWSF. Apple could almost get away, with not updating the Powerbooks before then. After all, they go quite a few months sometimes, but that would be a year, and I don't think they'll wait that lon…

Gamblor, I will be devastated, if they rename Powerbooks and Powermacs. The processor may be different, but those lines became a symbol, for Apple. I don't want the names changed.

Speed bumps and revisions I suspect.

I have wondered the same thing. It is my hope they keep the names Powermac and Powerbook.

If you don't want to get the current Dual 2.0, then I suggest you get the last Dual 1.8s, from Amazon.com or something. THey have them on special for just over $1600. There is a significant difference in performance between the single G5 and the…

Do not consider the Mac Mini, if the Powerbook is slow to you. The Mac Mini only has 32MB of VRAM and doesn't support core-image. The Mac Mini would be a step backwards IMHO. Sounds likes this machine is used for graphic professional use, so …

Just to note, Amazon.com has the last-generation 17-inch iMac G5 1.8 with Superdrive, for $999, after rebate.
