Educational Discount makes 12" iBook a Steal!

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2004
The Bottom Line: Awesome base Mac notebook. Priced near or better than comparable WIntel machines. Bulletproof OS. Amazing battery life!
Review: Background
My last portable by Mac was a huge affair that I would check out for trips from my office. I can't even remember what the name of it was (this was 14 years ago), but it was immense. Probably weighed 10 to 15 lbs, with a black and...

The Mac notebook that "thinks" it's expensive, but isn't

Amazingly Great, Amazingly Cheap

Date of Review:  Feb 19, 2004
The Bottom Line: A bargain laptop that thinks its a luxury model, but 90-day tech support is laughable. My highest recommendation.
Review: I didn't buy the iBook G4, but I did just spend a week using one. In fact, I was very close to buying this machine, and actually would have, had not the PowerBook 12" been better looking. Spending $400(I used student pricing, at retail iBook is $500...
