Quote: Originally posted by dacloo I am worried, my model number is 1079 which is on the replacement list, but then my battery serial number does NOT validate on the apple website. Give Apple a call to verify, cos that's what I did.

Can anyone tell me the usual time needed to have the replacement battery delivered once an order is placed, thanks!

Quote: Originally posted by Gon In this case, it's not the weight that counts. At least for me, the difference between the size of 15" and 12" decides whether it's comfortable to use in an airplane or train seat. The size also has a lot to do wit…

Does anyone know in the past if the "Mac OS X Up-To-Date Program" be extended to different parts of the world other than the U.S. and the Canadian customers? I'm looking at my local Apple site ( Apple Computer Hong Kong - http://www.appleclub.co…

Is the Tiger upgrade CD the same as a pre-installed system with Tiger on it? My concern is the Mac OS upgrade perspective. I want to get a PowerBook now, but Panther is installed on the system (since the official Tiger release date is on and afte…

Quote: Originally posted by mynameis Have you thought about buying a 20in iMac and a 12in iBook instead, it would only be about $100USD more than a 12in SuperDrive PB with a 20in Cinema Display? I've never thought of. You're right! Maybe I sh…

Is it also fair to say that a 12-inch PowerBook and a ACD or a LCD display would be a better buy than a 15-inch PowerBook, given that the prices for both setups are the same/similar? It's such a hard choice for me here cos I'm currently looking a…

Quote: Originally posted by CosmoNut Maybe I'm being obtuse, but I don't understand what you're getting at. If you want a new Powerbook in the box, ask for one. There are sections in the store that are for used/open box items. I'd guess I'd sa…

I'm planning to get the 15-inch Combo Drive at an Apple Center. So I was wondering what I should take note of if the PowerBook is new and unused/not a demo unit at the store?
-
Thanks for your inputs guys! If I were to get the 15-inch Combo Drive, how do I determine if the PowerBook is the latest revision? Just wanted to make sure that I don't get the previous revision, with someone swapping out the SuperDrive and putting …

Here's my worry. I get Panther today, Tiger releases tomorrow. Then I get an upgraded Tiger CD from Apple at a reduced price. I don't think I can do a straight/clean install from Tiger right? I don't like the idea of having bits and pieces of Pan…

Quote: Originally posted by ibook911 Sure. This is not a problem. As I said, you'll have to buy Tiger, but you can upgrade without problem. I'll be upgrading my Powerbook to Tiger, as soon as I can get it in my hands. I've always thought …

Quote: Originally posted by ibook911 You can do that, but you're going to have to pay for Tiger. Apple will offer $20 upgrades, but it will be for those who purchased a computer, with Panther, after Tiger comes out. But is there a downsid…

Thanks for all your replies! My another questions is, do you think it's worth getting a PowerBook now with Panther installed, and then get the Tiger upgrade when it's released later next month? Therefore, I can get the best of both worlds (two gr…
