Our Photoshop guy, Greg Danbrooke, brought in this screenless Powerbook--a truly sad sight indeed--but it came with an even bigger touch-sensitive screen. Yay!
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.
Literally.
I always hated the hinges on the Titanium Powerbooks. They always felt like they were this close to breaking.
Sigh.
Took apart my hosed PowerBook to try and liberate my harddrive. Operation PowerBook was successful. I was able to get my data back. The computer? Well, that's another story.
I cleaned out and reorganized a room and found something left behind by the previous resident: a Macintosh Powerbook 145B. It even still works, but the battery is useless.
At the full resolution of this image, you can see the space between each pixel. In all fairness, I can get an image showing that space on most modern computer displays, but usually I can't do that and fit the whole display in the frame.
I'm staying at the Hotel Cristal. It's pretty good - four days wifi for £8 can't be bad!
However, the friendly guy at the reception desk who set it up for me (read: typed the WEP key) hadn't used a Mac before... "AirPort? No, no, no, it should be called 'hotel_cristal'" :-)
Everything I need for an early night. Watching Little Britain on BBC iPlayer on the iPod touch, keeping up with my friends tweets on Twitter via the PowerBook, news on the TV which I'm completely ignoring and a comfy bed which I shall soon be snoozing in.
Done! Like a nail. I'm off the Internet! Ciao! My Powerbook hard drive is gone. So it's very possible I will forget my passwords and never get another computer or to the Library to check my mail.
May The G-D of Heaven draw you to The Lord Jesus Christ and prepare you for His very soon coming. Revelation 14:6,7 & Exodus 20:8-11. G-D Bless You and Keep You.
