    in 10 inch powerbook feasible? Comment by augustwest July 2003
  • I like Escher's design. Perhaps there could be a pull-out pointing device, like a mousepad tray or something. Also, would be a great device to add to the "digital lifestyle" -- perhaps used in combination with an ipod/hard drive device, or even s…

  • I've been using the 7135 for about a week. I've only hooked up to my work PC, so I don't know how well it integrates with my Mac at home. I'm hoping all goes well! My main priority was getting a phone/palm combination, so I'm very happy with the …

  • Wow! Taipan! Now that's a game I haven't heard in a long, long time. Where is the best place to get free palm games? the palm website?

  • i really appreciate the replies. I'm hoping if enough people respond with helpful suggestions, I'll at least have something to report to my network guy. Thanks again!

  • I tested the powerbook and the ibook on "basic" photoshop transforms and didn't see much of a noticeable real-life difference (of course the powerbook was faster). I would say go with the ibook until the powerbook is seriously revamped. I actuall…
    in iBook vs PowerBook - which more suited to my needs? Comment by augustwest May 2003
  • Yes, I have the first gen MDD, and would encourage any with future models to complain, since apple obviously listened the last time around!

  • Thanks for the reply. I'm using a relatively new iBook, but I've heard the pbook reception was not as good.
    in software base station v. airport base station? Comment by augustwest May 2003
  • I hate to revive this thread with a stupid question: Are people here generally recommending that this is the best method to use your computer: 1. for an ibook running osx, charge my ibook battery, leave it on in sleep mode, unplug the charger,…

  • does anyone know how much thinner the new ipods are?
    in New iPods Comment by augustwest April 2003
  • I think it depends what you want to do with it. For rugged portability, I'd go with the iBook. That's what I got, but I also have a dualie desktop as my main computer. If you want a laptop to serve as your only computer, and you want to do video …

    in 17inch imac or dual 867? Comment by augustwest August 2002
  • I just went through the same analysis. I was ready to buy the imac, but was swayed at the last minute to get the dual 867. Here was my reasoning: 1. I think there is slightly more screen real estate on the 17 inch studio display than on the im…
