Amazingly Great, Amazingly Cheap
by lawman67 , Thu Feb 19 10:17:47 EST 2004
Pros: G4 power, sexy design, incredible price
Cons: 640MB Ram ceiling, small cache
Review: I didn’t buy the iBook G4, but I did just spend a week using one. In fact, I was very close to buying this machine, and actually would have, had not the PowerBook 12” been better looking. Spending $400(I used student pricing, at retail iBook is... read full review
The bottom line: A bargain laptop that thinks its a luxury model, but 90-day tech support is laughable.
My highest recommendation. | | | | | Author's rating: | | | Ease of Use: | | | Quality of Tech Support: | |

Review: I've had three months to become comfortable with my new 12" iBook G4 before writing a qualified review, time which I feel is necessary when writing a review on just about any costly electronic device. Just for the record, this iBook is my first personal... read full review
The bottom line: The iBook is a great value for a laptop. It looks awesome, runs fast, and is simple to use. I'd recommend it to anybody looking for a Mac-portable! | | | | | Author's rating: | | | Ease of Use: |  |
There hasn't been a better time to switch.

Pros: Overall this notebook is portable, fast, lightweight, high quality and elegant.
Cons: One button trackpad drives me nuts sometimes. A little slow loading on some heavy apps.
Review: I have been using PC's for 10 years now, I work on them all day. The last time I had used a mac was about 6 years ago in graphic design, I never even thought of switching from my PC to a mac until just recently. Portability: The 12" model is... read full review
The bottom line: I am extremely happy with this Apple product, I would definitely urge anyone who is considering getting a mac to go for it, I doubt you'd regret it. | | | | | Author's rating: | | | Ease of Use: | | | Quality of Tech Support: | |
Excellent reason to abandon Microsoft permanently

Pros: Built Like a Tank, Battery Life, Mac OSX, Size/Weight, 802.11b/g, Included Apps
Cons: Keyboard pressure, Screen durability
Review: The iBook G4 is in my opinion (I'm not saying this lightly) THE best portable computer one can own, and I have pretty much (as the title states) abandoned Microsoft permanently; done away with its shortcomings, complexity, and unreliability. I won't... read full review
The bottom line: Best portable computer currently available | | | | | Author's rating: |  | | Ease of Use: | | | Quality of Tech Support: |  |
12" iBook G4; A Review
by thesman , Thu Feb 19 19:52:53 EST 2004
Pros: Attractive design, slot loading Combo Drive, G4 processor (finally), nice display, good battery life, portable
Cons: Smudges easily, one button track pad, small speaker sound, CD Drive is loud.
Review: I have always been intrigued by the Apple's iBook since its introduction. Not necessarily the design, mind you. The clamshell / toilet bowl design wasn't as attractive to me as the idea that Apple was offering an affordable laptop computer. It became... read full review
The bottom line: With it's sleek design, ease of use, portability and G4 processor - you can't go wrong with Apple's 12" iBook G4. | | | |
