Hopefully some after-market company will come out with a battary that would actually last 4-5 hours, I think I'd be willing to part with $180+or- for it.

I have a Rev A PB 17" and I can tell you that 2+ hours of battery life is typical if you don't do anything to your energy settings. However, if you do a few things: Turn off Bluetooth (why leave this thing on unless you have devices that use i…

True, but I heard when the 1 GB sticks first came out, that while you could install it in your system, that anything over 1 GB would not be used. Now maybe that wasn't true, but that's the last I heard about it.

Quote: Originally posted by rampancy You mean, just like the hilarious "Turbo" button that they had on the front of those old 486 PC's? I had a turbo button on my first 8088 (that's XT generation), and sometimes I had to turn it "off" becaus…

Quote: Originally posted by bperkins I wanted to do a poll on this, but I figured we had enough PB topics. How many of you that have the 17" will go back to the 15" PB once it is updated? I love this thing, but man it is a hassle to carry aro…

I use mine (17" PB) for work and play. I bought it for myself but I have worked it into my "work life" as my everyday computer (and everyone at work drools over it So it goes back and forth between work and home everyday, and I take it on any tr…

Sorry to hear you're having problems! I got mine about 3 weeks after they started shipping (sometime in April) and I haven't had any (knock on wood ) hardware problems. I have had it not wake from sleep a couple times, well, actually it seems th…

Quote: Originally posted by Bygimis Turug VIII You don't get it offered until its time for you to renew. Okay, that's why I couldn't find it. I checked out several links from the main .Mac site and no luck. Hmmm, still not sure if I'll rene…

Quote: Originally posted by VanDeWaals How? I have DW 3 and as far as I can tell, it can calculate how MUCH your drive is fragmented (mine is over a year and a half old and is only 1% fragmented according to DW). If there is a defrag utility in…

Here's what little I can add: 1) ... < Okay, so my opener was correct, I can only add a "little" As it turns out I was confusing optimizing with defragging so this point deserves to be deleted. Move along, nothing to see here...> 2) Re…

Okay, installed that software and when I plugged in my hub this morning, I saw the list of "USB devices" pop up, and noticed that my mouse did not appear. So I unplugged the hub, and then plugged it back in. Same problem. So I unplugged the mouse fr…
