Product Description
Take a high-performance PowerPC G4 processor, add a wide-screen display, and enclose it all in a lightweight titanium case. Apple has just created the PowerBook G4 - and redefined portable computing. If you need the utmost power for creative design, education, or business, the PowerBook G4 is ready to provide it wherever you go. Making a notebook computer the slimmest and lightest in its category shouldn't have to mean making compromises in performance and functionality. What makes a supercomputer "super" is its ability to execute at least one billion floating-point operations per second. It's a staggering measure of speed known as a "gigaflop". In addition, the PowerPC G4 can perform four (in some cases eight) 32-bit floating-point calculations in a single cycle - two to four times faster than traditional processors. The PowerPC G4 with Velocity Engine works with the PowerPC architecture to accelerate the data-intensive processing required by next-generation video, voice and graphics applications.Among the G4 key features is a vector permute function capable of rearranging data in the registers - a priceless benefit when converting data from one format to another (often necessary with voice, video and graphics applications, which typically need to save data in a number of different formats). These vector-processing acceleration advantages give the G4 microprocessor a significant edge when it comes to fast visualization of large data sets and intensive math for real-time simulations, making the PowerPC G4 perfect for everything from digital video, graphics and 3D games to astronomy, the biosciences and predictive modeling.

I'm in love.......2003-06-25
A one word review would suffice: "WOW!!!"
But, I will elaborate..... :-) This is the best laptop I've ever owned. It is my fourth Macintosh is just under three years. My first was a clamshell iBook. I then owned a PowerBook G3 and an eMac G4 but decided that I wanted portability in my G4. I bought this PowerBook G4 667 and never looked back. This was the most intelligent purchase I've ever made in the computer world.
Apple designed a truly wonderful products. It is speedy, beautiful, and functional. I could not ask for more in a notebook computer. Thanks, Apple! I'm now a dedicated and loyal user.
The PowerBook G4 is an amazing machine.......2003-02-23
This is a beautiful computer. I have no complaints. I love it!
The Best Thing Since the Internet........2002-12-07
I've had my Powerbook since mid March. It wasn't a few days ago that I realized that I made the switch from a PC user to Apple user when booted up my PC for the first time in a couple of weeks for the purpose of moving all my personal files from big clunky PC to the Powerbook.
I'm not even going to get into how cool this thing looks, you can see in the picture that this an extremely handsome piece of hardware ... I'll delve right into the reason why you'd should buy this thing. Lets face it, these things cost an awful lot of money and it would be quite foolish to buy this thing on its good looks alone.
As a lot of you know, Apple has completely redone the operating system that they ship with this thing (OS X). To cut to the point, its a flavor of the BSD operating system with a Mac GUI called Aqua running on top of it.
What does that mean you ask?
Its running on a flavor of the UNIX operating system which will rarely crash, if ever. So if you're into tinkering around with GNU/Linux or the like, you'll love this thing. If you always hear about all the cool things that computer hacker types can do with computers but have no idea in where to start with these things you'll love this thing too. Apple has a GUI called that runs on top of it that has all the cool stuff that can take hours setting up yourself as simple as (literally) clicking on a button that says start.
For instance, if you have a connection to the internet (dialup, cable modem, dsl, etc.) you can set this laptop up to be a full fledged Unix server that can host your web pages and that you can telnet into in a matter of seconds (go into System Preferences and click start). So you won't have to spend hours trying to set this up if its not your thing. If it is your thing, you can still get into the guts of the computer and do it at the command prompt as you would in Linux.
The one thing that I was very weary about in buying this thing was can you find software for this thing and will the stuff I use on Windows work on this. To quickly answer it, yes Microsoft Office, Photoshop files, mp3s, etc. all work perfectly fine once you transfer them over. If your into that sort of thing, there's just as many Peer to Peer sharing programs for Apple as there are for Windows, the Mac ones might even be better.
As for the downsides of this thing ... there are a few but none that should stop anyone from thinking of checking out the Powerbook from not buying it.
The battery life is not as good as advertised - if you plan on using this for extended amounts of time before recharging it (over three hours) you should strongly consider getting the extra battery. Also rumor has it that since its so thin that the dust and grease from your fingers that get on the keys can damage the LCD when its closed (that hasn't happened to me but I believe it ... putting a piece of paper between the keyboard on LCD when you store it solves this problem).
Software wise my only complaint is dialup connections are painfully slow. A 52K connection seems like it may as well be a 14.4 connection. If you have any type of a high speed internet access this will not effect you one bit.
That's my take on this machine. I think its the greatest thing in computing since the Internet explosion and I just wanted to put in my two cents on it.

PowerBook Rocks.......2002-07-05
I've had my PowerBook G4 since January. I was shopping around for a new computer and came across this beauty. Up to that point I had been strictly a PC user. However, I was sold on this computer. Sure, it took a little getting used to a new OS, but that only took a few days.
When I bought this computer, I splurged. I brought the RAM to 512 MB, I bought an iPod (5GB) and an airport station, plus Office X. Yes, it cost me a small fortune, but it's still worth it. I love this computer.
This computer is FAST (even at 667 MHz)!! It never seems to slow down. I can play a DVD in a window and be working on email or in Excel or on a website and it keeps up. OS X is incredibly stable and has only crashed once in 7 months. Oh yeah, it's also great looking. I sit at Starbucks with it and constantly get people asking me about it.
Why only 4 stars? Battery life doesn't seem to be that great, even after turning the brightness down on the screen. However, Apple has recently tweaked the DVD player and I can play a three hour DVD with no problems. For cross-country trips, I bought an extra battery. Also, the keyboard presses up against the screen when it's closed and has made some marks on the LCD display.
If you can afford it, I HIGHLY recommend an iPod.
Take this, Bill gates!.......2002-04-27
Like many windows users, I bought into the fallacy that you didn't want an apple computer because of the lack of software - until I saw this Powerbook at an Apple store, did some research, found all the software I wanted was available for apple computers, and realized that I need not support the dark dominion of Microsoft anymore. Bought the computer and I have never regretted it. OS X is great too, no more one program crashing the entire computer. Beautiful in looks and execution, fast, with a RW drive, light, beautiful screen. If Apple had been as unscrupulous as Microsoft in it's early days we might all be using these wonderful computers.

LOW price -- BIG thing.......2003-06-04
It's COOL
In corners have little problems ,but you can fix from OSD-color landing
Thank for great sony flat tube
Very nice monitor.......2002-04-09
I just hooked up this monitor and love it. It is trully flat and has improved my computing experience significantly because of the sheer size of the monitor. I had to pull my desk out from the wall a little because 21" monitors are so large, but I find I can comfortably sit much further away from the monitor as well. Even from a distance, text and graphics are easy to see. After a minute or so, I masterd the controls on the front of the monitor and quckly fine tuned the display. Now I experience rich colors, great contrast and crisp lettering. I run dual monitors and find that it is capable of much richer and finer displays then my 19" Dell running along side it. There are better out there I'm sure, but if you get a good deal on this monitor you won't be sorry.
Okay for a 21" flat screen.......2002-01-18
After you've been using a lesser monitor, any 21" flat screen is heaven. That's how I felt when I first bought the KDS AV-21TF. It was so much better than my old curved-screen Iiyama 21" monitor.
A nice thing about the KDS monitor is that it can easily manage a resolution of 1600x1200 at a flicker-free 85 Hz. It also has a very comprehensive set of on-screen controls for fine-tuning the image, including good adjustments for color in the corners. (I strongly recommend spending the time to adjust a new monitor - you can always get a significantly better image.)
But after seeing this monitor next to some others (the Dell Trinitron P991 19" flat screen, and the NEC FP1370 22" flat screen), the image on the KDS monitor seems dull and grayish in comparison). On my dual-monitor system, I tend to drag documents from the KDS to the NEC when I do a lot of reading.
The worst point is the control buttons. I've worked with a lot of monitors, and I've never seen such a counter-intuitive button design. It's very frustrating to spend 20 minutes getting the monitor settings just right, only to accidentally press the monitor's reset button and lose all of your work.
I love it!.......2001-01-05
I finally moved up from my measly 15 inch monitor, and this is a beauty. Flat screen, beautiful color, high resolution, and easy on the eyes. Oddly, its footprint isn't much different than my 15 inch, so it doesn't take up much more surface area on my desk. I spend hours a day on the computer, so this monitor is a godsend. Reading black text on a white background is excellent (the white isn't *too* white and it doesn't glare), and reading white on black is good. The only slight complaint I have is a small patch of discoloration in the lower left corner; it has a slightly yellowish tint. But it's small, and with over 20 inches of viewable image, you can't see the discoloration unless you look for it.
