Rating:  out of 5 stars - Another AWESOME Apple :-)
You have to get this great 17" Mac! Having just upgraded to this laptop, I cannot believe how awesome it is. Whether on the road or lugging it to and from the office, connecting via wireless or LAN/WAN it is so easy and convenient.
Buy it, you won't regret it.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Some people simply write inadequate reviews...
I dont have a Powerbook 17 (yet), so I am not going to make any statemnts abouit it. Nevertheless I feel like saying the following:

after reading some of the reviews here, I noticed that people often make the mistake of comparing Powerbooks to PCs. This is wrong guys! Please compare Powerbook with Wintel Notebooks only. And then youll probably see that PB definitely is a strong performer. Otherwise you may also start to compare Centrino Notebooks with dual G5s..

thanks



Rating:  out of 5 stars - overall good, but not perfect
The Powerbook 17" is reasonably fast. I suggest however to get it with at least 1GB since any Apple computers work defnitively better with a good amount of ram (half Giga is really the minimum). With 2GB (as I got) you will be quite satisfied since that will avoid the use of virtual memory (that can be painfully slow).

Rating:  out of 5 stars - One of the best desktop replacement notebooks available
After reading the in-depth review at www.laptoplogic.com (http://www.laptoplogic.com/reviews/apple/25/1/1/) I went out and purchased the laptop from the Apple store with 1GB DDR RAM and 5400RPM hard drive. Everything about this system is stunning -- the screen, keyboard, design, and power. I use to own a Toshiba 15.4" and this thing is LIGHTER than the Toshiba. I'm a new user of OS X and I absolutely love it. It's probably easier than Windows. I recommend buying this thing if you want a large screen ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Simply the Best
I am a corporate designer. I had my choice of getting a G5 desktop or the 17" PowerBook. I struggled with the decision, primarily because I wanted those dual processors so badly. I went for the PowerBook because of the portability...and come on, it's GORGEOUS. I am absolutely thrilled I chose this laptop. It's fast, rarely crashes ( I think I restart maybe once a week) and is more than I expected or hoped for. I also maxed out the RAM at 2 gigs, which has helped tremendously.

I added a ... Read More
