 Met all of my needs without a flaw. | |
| After owning this machine for a few months I am convinced I will never buy desktop machine again. This is the powerbook I have been waiting for. While not as powerful as some of its desktop brothers it easily breezes through most of the main apps I use (mainly DTP apps). My wife loves to edit on my machine using FCP 3 and her Canon GL1 (she also loves the dual display support which is flawless). I can't wait till all apps are OS X native. But finding unix apps ported for X has been easy, and running apps in classic has been smooth sailing so far. For most users this will be an excellent desktop computer replacement as well as a moblie computer. | |
 Apple refuses to exchange brand new G4 | |
| I purchased a brand new G4 on 02/15/2002 during the Olympics in Salt Lake City, opened the sealed box and found a white lited pixel on the screen. Totally dissappointed. Call the Mac store the next day who advised that they are ordering a replacement G4. 02/18/00 store advised me that Apple will not replace my unit since their policy is that up to 3 damaged pixels are industry specs and therefore nothing is wrong with my unit. So I called 1800 sos apple and their customer service give the same story NOTHING IS WRONG WITH MY UNIT. Being a first time user I am shocked about the way I am treated by Apple. Apple customer service really took away my happyness at the Olympics very easily. The unit is spectacularly built but the white dot on the screen really bugs me. After pleading with Apple they still claim nothing is wrong with my unit. | |
 Think Real | |
| The product is very good, but the features are no big bargain at the price you are offering. Sorry, but this is no deal. |
