What began as a few isolated reports of mysterious stains appearing on the wrist rests of Apple Computer's MacBooks looks to be more widespread and the impetus for a growing Web community of displeased owners.
Between the dust kicked up by the splashy announcement of Apple's iBook at July's Macworld Expo/New York and the amount of smoke being blown by some media commentators, it's been more than a little difficult to get a clear picture of how the new consumer portable fits into Apple's hardware roadmap.
What began as a few isolated reports of mysterious stains appearing on the wrist rests of Apple Computer's MacBooks looks to be more widespread and the impetus for a growing Web community of displeased owners.
Apple has finally released its Intel-based MacBook, which replaces the iBook series of budget laptops. Our preview stacks it up against the MacBook Pro.
The original iBook wasn't everybody's cup of tea: veteran columnist John Dvorak described it as "girly". But this year's model sports a more conservative industrial design.
With the MacBook, Apple has corrected a handful of the iBook's shortcomings, hit a reasonable price point, and delivered a laptop that makes a great compromise between size and portability.
The HP Compaq Presario B1801TU, with its lightweight 1.6kg chassis and pleasing battery life would be a great companion for the road warrior, if not for its dismal performance when compared to competing offerings.
