I don't get this review. They give the 15" Powerbook a 3/5 because it runs too hot. That's it? Then if you look at the second link below, you'll see all the laptops that rank above the Powerbook: Compaq, HP, Dell! They've got to be smoking crack.

What do you expect from a PC-centric magazine?

You *did* notice that *PC* Mag is the "author" of that piece. Right??

Eh, PC Mag is usually well balanced. This is more an issue of the person who wrote the article possibly having a bias, not the publication.

i dunno, but only after 3 hours of nonstop surfing does my powerbook get hot. and even that's probably because i get sore from the same position for too long.

"Our test unit came with a SuperDrive, which can burn DVD-R but unfortunately not DVD-RW media."
" Apparently the design uses the bottom of the case to dissipate the CPU's heat—not ideal when the unit is on your lap."
OK, did they actually recieve a test unit, or did they just go off hearsay?
