The BlacBook would look GREAT with that Dell monitor of AGoglanian's. I have that monitor...Looking forward to pairing it up with a Merom-based BlacBook in about 6 monhs!!!

i agree, i really want to sell my powerbook to get a macbook.

but i wont even dare think of switching to intel until i have a universal copy of photoshop in my posession.

by that point, the updates to the macbook will be out already, and i will be über-happy

Nice, love the pics! Keep them coming!

BTW, Simon, does your MBP look small compared to the BB, or is just the picture?

That's a 12" PowerBook unless I'm mistaken.

You are indeed mistaken, judging by his specs. Also, you can see the mag safe adaptor, ....if I'm not mistaken.

Ah, you may be correct. And I guess that the DVI connector on the other side. Is there a way to get bigger than the tiny image you get on the clickthrough? I can barely make any of this out.

Edit: And now of course I see that he's actually mentioned that it's a MBP. Sorry, but the four lines of dense text in his signature blended in with the actual content of the post.

What's the problem, that's most people's dream is to have your favorite computer in your work place and a bottle of beer along side regardless what kind of beer it is. The only thing that sux is that I notice everyone's pic of the Black MacBook has a greasy trackpad. Yuk for a new machine.

I'm afraid you are. You can actually see the MagSafe and the DVI on the MBP. The picture sucks, I know.

Just for you, I'll post a little family picture with the 12" PB, MB, MBP and a spare iBook I just got so you can see them all next to each other. Just give me another hour or so. Need to get some work done first.

You need to get a decent screen my friend. On my 23" ACD I only see 2 lines. j/k

Haha. Well, I do have a 23" Cinema Display too, but I was writing on my PowerBook. Funny how the MBP looks so small in that picture.

I guess it was just the weird angle at which I took the pic.

OK, here we go. This is part of the family. Couldn't get more onto the same table.



From left to right: 23" ACD, 15" MBP 2GHz, 13" MB 2GHz, 12" PB 1.5GHz, 12" iB 1.33GHz.

And for those of you wondering about the glossy screen - the MBP was on full brightness, the MB too. Look at the two screens. I must say - and I never believed I would say this - but I really like the glossy screen of the MB. It's much brighter and offers more contrast. The colors just look washed out on the matte screen compared to the vibrant colors of the glossy screen.

Another question: What does one need four laptops for?
