how about you explain to us why can you cannot put a descriptive heading on this thread. "Help" ? WTF? [ 11-07-2002: Message edited by: FlashGordon ]

The superdrive is it. If you get the max model and deconfigure the Superbook it also subtracts the $200. Pretty good deal if you ask me.

Apple knows students are taking advantage of the deal who are not developers. If they cared they would change the rule, this has been going on for over a year. If anything it helps Apple. Most of the people who are using the program would not buy…

The powerbook G4 is our highest level notebook in every way, so you have to compare it to the different PC laptops that are the best at what they do. This thread is just comparing how they stack up in portable gaming. Obvioulsy this is not the bes…

This is the first time that I can remember that Apple has been hyped when about to release a new product, and then lived up to it, and surpassed it in this case. Kudos to Apple for not only a great release, but keeping it under raps. They definate…

Gotta love the "I clicked the icon at the same time and saw which opened first test". Did you measure the difference by counting one-mississippi...two-mississippi out loud or the second hand on your 10 year old Seiko? If you want stats that mean d…

there are pics of a slim DVD slot load drive out there, and it is the same dimensions as the current powerbooks combo drive, when it will be available is up in the air. I think rogue may have been talking about the current superdrives used in M…

[quote]Originally posted by rogue27: not likely. The case probably needs to be revised to fit a superdrive. are you just making that up? if it does come out for the Powerbook in the near future you will prolly be able to upgrade, just like yo…

You also have to pay for the software R&D when you buy a mac that come with iphoto, itunes, ical, iDVD, etc. Those apps are worth alot to the user and are heads above both the free and additional ones that you can get with a PC.

How about you just tell us the name of the company or give us a freaking link. That would make it pretty simple. It is not like they are going to track you down using your Appleinsider screen name and beat you with a wet noodle.

enough of the subjective opinions! here are some hard facts for you, hopefully next time you will do a google search for yourself.

This is a great deal if you get a 800mhz powerbook. You will save a few hundred dollars if it works the way it says.
