Strange, I just updated to 10.2.8 and when I started the computer it was at 80% and had 1:25 minutes left. I checked it a half hour later and its at 68% with (this is the weird part) 1:18 minutes left. I've been using word and surfing the inter…

I had the same problem. Bought an 15in 1.25 alu powerbook at an Apple store and it did the same thing. Except when I brought it in it did popped open right in front of the genius. He kept closing it and it did the same thing again and again. The…

Well 10.2.8 came out today, they said that power management is better in this version. I'm updating now I'll let you all know if there is any difference in my 1.25 powerbook. Josiah

I have one question and its about the Energy Saver control panel. What's the difference between the DVD playback option and the longest battery life option. If the longest battery life gives the longest battery life then why not use that when …

Apple says you should use your battery at least every 3 months or it will start to go south.

Well according to Apple's requirements you have a pretty decent computer. From Apple: Macintosh computer with a 300-MHz or faster PowerPC G3 or G4 processor and built-in FireWire A 500-MHz or faster single or 450-MHz dualprocessor Power …

Another thing is OWC has batteries for the Ti that claim to get 30% more battery time. I'm sure with lower time in the Alu that they will get a battery out for the new powerbooks. If they can get about 65 Watt hour battery compared to the inst…

The fan on the new Alu has a different noise to it then the Ti. The Ti was very high pitched (if you have one you'll understand what i'm talking about) The Alu fan is very quiet. I just unplugged the power adapter and its telling me 2 hours o…

I talked to some guy at apple support on reseting a battery. My old 550Ti was getting 50minutes on a battery on the longest battery life setting. Charge your computer completely until the power connector changes to green. Then unplug and use …

Quote: Originally posted by jindrich hi howyoudoin, did you replace a Ti550 for the new alu? I have a Ti550 and wonder to do the same, as i'm a little sick of the low performance, heat and fan noise of my powerbook. What differences do you …

This is for all whom are complaining about the price. www.purchaseprogram.com. My friend bought a dual 1.25 from them for about $1200, brand new. (he had to wait a month for it though) I picked the right path and waited until the G5's.

the reason they didn't make it like the ibm machine was steve said the superdrive can't operate at full speeds when its on its side and to me it looks like the ibm does that.

everybody should have expected that there wouldn't be no new powermac's at the expo was because the saviings on the lcd's continues till the 31st of jan. which means probably during the first week of feb or the quicktime live which for some reason w…
