Not so much a review as an adventure....
Review of Apple iBook G4 - PPC G4 1 GHz - 12.1" TFT by
TMC1320
Advantages: Very portable and reliable, good basic spec with lots of upgrade possibilities.
Disadvantages: Pretty poor after-care support, not the most sensible colour!
I purchased my iBook 12" at the end of 2004 on an end-of-line deal from Micro Anvika.
I was very happy with my purchase but added an extra 512MB worth of memory and an Airport Extreme card which wasn't standard back then.
My iBook came with Mac OSX Panther, the pre-runner to Tiger and came with the iMovie and iPhoto suite which unfortunately is not standard with the newer Tiger OS.
Initial set-up is a breeze, even intalling extra memory and the ... ...since installed.
My main uses are internetting and music composition with Reason and this iBook meets my current needs just fine.
The iBook was given a fairly severe road-test in 2005 when I was away on an outdoor instructor course and was virtually homeless.
I obviously kept it well away from the water activities but my adventures took the ibooks durability to the extreme when it was dropped accidentally from about 20 feet onto a concrete floor ...

Neat little laptop
Review of Apple iBook G4 - PPC G4 1 GHz - 14.1" TFT by
jadzia2430
Advantages: Slimline design, easy to use.
Disadvantages: Screen a little small
Nice slender design with all usual Mac functions. easy to use applications. Keyboard is soft to touch with ease on finger tips. problems may occure when trying to download products off internet, resulting in you giving up trying. Great for fun activities i.e. photo editing, video making and design activities. Not so good for heavy duty internet use. I found out shortly after purchasing my new laptop, that one of the applications required a super ...

Cute and impressive
Review of Apple iBook G4 - PPC G4 1.2 GHz - 12.1" TFT by
ruth_emily
Advantages: Handy size, reliable operating system and simple to use
Disadvantages: Harder to get hold of software for Macs than for PCs
...computer. There are also various apple stores around the country, such as one in Birmingham's Bullring. Buying direct from Apple was good, as after I had ordered online, I had to phone their helpline to change my order. This proved very easy and they were most helpful. I was also able to get a student discount, as I am a university student, and this is definitely something that you should look into if you are in education, as it offers you a pretty ...

Finally a computer that works!
Review of Apple iBook G4 - PPC G4 1.2 GHz - 14.1" TFT by
georgie148
Advantages: Sleek design, Light weight, and Easy to use
Disadvantages: Slightly out of date now
...to give! I purchased an Apple Mac after stupidly trying to run the Adobe creative suite, and Logic on a PC. And I have to say after trying to set up a new Vista PC last week, I will NEVER get another PC.
This Mac is a great starter point for the first time Apple buyer. It is light enough to carry around, and has a very sufficeint 6hour battery life. Having a built in cd/dvd copier is a great bonus, along with the small charger plug unlike many laptops. ...

Review of Dell XPS m1330 by
stonecoldkevster
Advantages: Speed
Disadvantages: Crashes sometimes

Has a security fingerprint check to get in the laptop or/and in laptop files. Now that is technology so if any one steals it they wont be able to get on it!
Also is designed for storing pictures and movies and games and ...
