Using the G4 powerbook, a Motorola V710 and a bluetooth serial connection to go online in very rural Indiana.
Clean back with charge indicator LED (green) and sleep LED (visible both from rear and front of the machine). Only one warm air exhaust grill and the organically formed hinge covers are visible.
it's smallish, black and pretty heavy. the keyboard is good, once you get over it looking wierdly like one of those stick on ones for sinclair zx81s. it's not as big as the old pismo, but a fair amount heftier than the g4 12". not as tall, though. the coating's a bit like the pismo. the screen is shiny, but seems ok. it goes bright. it does not run classic programs. with added katiecat.
last night, my beloved powerbook for 4 years fell to the ground!!! I pulled the powercord while moving away from my desktop, forcing the PB to split on the floor, damaging my HD.(this doesn't happen with the new MagSafe cord)... Here it is with its new HD and featuring Bjork's new album (Volta) cover.... It's been a while since I saw a desktop this empty! mixed feelings.... mixed feelings...
My new PowerBook G4 just arrived! Here are the specs:
1.5 GHz PowerPC G4
2GB RAM
160GB hard drive
15" screen
OS X Tiger DUAL BOOTING OS X Leopard : )
Close up. It's slightly buckled, and the colour has started to craze and melt. Black burnt areas are all over it.
This really can't be good.
