Dudes-chill on the spelling, grammar and elocution. Nary a post here is without some sort of faux pas in this regard and don't even get me started on style. If online posting language or the quality...

Dudes-thanks for the helpful information 758 Views / 4 Replies  
Hey Guys, thanks for the helpful information. The only hold up now is what lays around the corner for the iMac. Me thinks, I will be upgrading shortly.

Good luck on the paper. Though most of the ideas and insights on this topic where anecdotal, there were a few good points that could be fleshed out with some research.

Keep those cores coming! When the next intel rev in this configuration comes out, it's definitely something I'll loosen the purse strings up for. I wonder what they'll put in that 24 inch iMac?

This forum topic has to do with the expense of Macs not superiority of platform, but seeing you brought it up; why not look at it.

The Mac OS "would be" attacked argument, based on market share...

A Mac's base price may be off-putting, but you really cannot in fairness compare the low end offerings of Apple to most of the other PC hardware manufacturers. As posted above, Apple controls the...

Poll: iBook Ram 1,349 Views / 24 Replies  
640 on my older G3 800-maxed out. I recommend doing likewise on any computer purchase with the exception of the G5 towers-you'll go bankrupt buying that much ram. In that case I would go to 1-2Gb...

iBook Logic Board 830 Views / 6 Replies  
While your model predates the iBook I presently use, it sounds as if you did run into the dreaded logic board failure. Mine failed about a year after purchase and Apple replaced the defective board....

iBook is just fine. 3,600 Views / 33 Replies  
While the iBook is a little slower, it should be fine for design and graphics work in the CS suite, Macromedia suite and Quark. I would not recomend the iBook for anything like 3D work.

It would...

Car Metaphor-Yet again 4,672 Views / 19 Replies  
Dunno how the deal to sell these at MacMall was struck, but-history or not-those VT G5s are way overpriced. Any car dealership will tell you, driving the car off the lot drops the resale value of...

Trolling G5 Mod at overclockers 629 Views / 3 Replies  
The deal is this...Windows is dominant. If Big Redmond had their way, it would be the only platform-period. In business, they actively pursue this goal-ethics be dammed. Their OS is second rate and...

iBook perspective 12,868 Views / 88 Replies  
Macs...I seems like I've owned them all over the years. As it turns out I have one of the G3 800mhz iBooks and would endorse it. My experience with this machine has been very good. While I do not own...

iBook seems pretty tough 1,454 Views / 11 Replies  
I've had a G3 800mhz iBook since it's revision came out and it has held up famously. While I cannot say I've dropped it, I would say it can endure reasonable knocks and bumps. The only downshot I can...

latent sound problems-recording 1,108 Views / 12 Replies  
I have had similar problems with my iBook. What seems to work is hooking up a fast 7200rpm external drive and saving the project there first. I do not believe it is the processor that is the problem...
