i found all the pics on the forum about PB 12 has one common fact, when your camera place at the same horizontal line or 30 degree above of your PB, the PB 12 looks really ugly, but PB 15 and 17 is still sexy.
i thought that is due to PB 12 is thicker compare to 15 and 17, and most importantly, PB12 has shorter length.
There were once four people named Everybody, Somebody, Nobody and Anybody. Somebody had to do a job, but Nobody wanted to do it. Nobody could see that Anybody could do it, and Somebody got angry about that because it was Everybody's job. Nobody ended up doing it, and it so happened that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Think he means that at the same certain angles, the 12" PowerBook is not as photogenic as the 15" and 17" PowerBooks.

But still, huh?

The 12" is beautiful no matter which angle it is viewed from.

i think it's the best looking of the three. no extra 'fat' on the sides of the keyboard. it is like a jewel to me.

When closed, the 17 is a marvel as thin as it is.

i think what he means is that the MiniMe has a lesser-quality LCD than the Laptray (MaxiMe?) and the AverageMe...

Love that signature, though. Nobody does it Better!
