Quote: Originally posted by mpopkin I use both wintel and Apple Laptops and let me tell you one thing, my new PB 1.5 ghz is the fastest laptop i have ever had and use a pentium m at 1.6 ghz and it is not even close in performance or speed. mp…

I disagree that we are off topic!, the point of the thread is can the Powerbook remain competitive with PC notebooks with Centrino 1.7's and the now announced Dothan 2GHz without a G5?. Or can Moto get the G4 beyond the current clock rate, whilst…

Spot on Matsu! I wish bare feats (or another web site) might do more of this type of testing. I would like to see how a PB 1.5 stacks up against a Centrino 1.6/1.7 on like you said a set of tasks on various types of apps, with price the common de…

Although the concept of a G5 Mini is intrigueing, how much different would it be to the SUPER sexy iMac FP?. Even Apple acknowledges that the 'Consumer' desktops are not selling like they were even 4 years ago - the continuing trend is for Laptops …

Quote: Originally posted by Sh0eWax That is a very acceptable opinion, given that it is supported, but one cannot expect complete understanding when all that is asked is perhaps the most common newbie question, "when will the powerbooks be update…

Quote: Originally posted by Res I'm so tired of people saying that. Of course he doesn't need a faster computer, in fact, no one needs a computer at all (it is not integral to survival). We just want computers, and there is nothing wrong with wan…

Quote: Originally posted by MarcUK I think the fact that new iMacs were not released today surely means that Apple are waiting on the 90nm 970FX chips from IBM for the update. There is no other reason IMO why Apple would not release 1.5ghz G4 iMa…

Quote: Originally posted by Algol I have been thinking, although not necessarily seriously yet, about trading my 1Ghz Tibook in for a 1.33Ghz 12" PowerBook. I have played with the old 1Ghz 12" and it was substantially slower than mine, especially…

JMO, but isnt the reason the iMac is not selling very well, because MOST people are now buying laptops for general purpose computing use?. The ibook is priced extremely well now at 1099, and most businesses will buy the eMac for their staff at 79…

Yep, Jan 05 (MWSF - is my bet!) at the earliest now. The current update is quite good including the price drops. Also, this also gives moto and maybe IBM to come out with even faster G4 by year end. Its entirely possible that a moto's 7457R or…

I can understand the G4 chip in the ibooks/powerbooks, but the imac NEEDS a G5 chip @ 1.6G now!. Of course, what will likely happen is that Apple will put the 1.5G G4 into them and drop the price on them. On the other hand, bare feats have pro…

Yeehaa!, Im getting the 1.5G 15", my wife gets my Ti 400, to replace her clamshell ibook!. Im stoked, this Ti400 has been amazing - first time ive had a PB for 2.5 years!. A PB G5 would have blown me away, but it also appears as though the G5 …

I was predicting WWDC for the Powerbook - but just noticed that MOSR are now as well!, Ouch, looks like it now wont be till MWSF05!. That aside, does Apple have any G4's faster than 1.33G in volume for the PB's to be updated now?, I think Moto's …

I came here because I might have been enlightened with some hard realities "facts". Oh well, i guess you havent read the 970FX QRG off ibm's web site. Typical Power 12.3W @ 1.4G, the 7447 is 19W @ 1.42G - which is hotter than the G5!. The low…
