True that. But it kinda gave me the impression that the PB is a very very defective machine.

The only thing that I would not agree on with the article is the assessment of battery life.

He mentions that he hasn't been getting more than 2 hours of battery life with his 1Ghz AlBook... I know many (including myself) who can easily get 3 hours with the 1.25Ghz AlBook which uses even more power... I think it has to do with the wide spectrum of battery qualities in the 15"ers.
Powerbook 15.2" G4 1.5Ghz
1GB RAM, 80GB 5400rpm
4GB iPod Mini, Rev 2, Green
