Date of Review:  Oct 19, 2006
The Bottom Line: Chances are they will not be a lasting investment.
Review: I was the owner of 2 of this machines. I owned the first for close to a year (late 2004), and then I purchased one for my wife (mid 2005). Overall, excellent performing machines. Stable software, no problems with virus and spy ware, and very...

More than a laptop, more than an iBook, it's my recording studio

Date of Review:  Jan 7, 2006
The Bottom Line: I wanted to create my home recording studio and the iBook helped me do that for under $1200. Now I can program, record, mix and burn my very own music.
Review: After reading this review, please visit my web page to hear the music produced, written and performed by me - Gareth - using this new iBook:
