Customer Reviews as always, apple makes another great laptop This laptop had a dead battery on arrival and it would not charge. However, it worked from the power adaptor. Seems it was a bad battery, there was a batch of them apparently. Of course this would not have happened if I had purchased from the Apple Store or other retail place but I would have paid more and amazon.com had a $200.00 rebate for this model. Anyway the day it arrived I called Apple and after they checked the serial numbers and ok'd it, a new battery arrived the next day. Other that, it has performed above expectations. I would suggest you add more RAM as that will speed things up. This machine is a work of art. Excellent choice! I was a Windows home user and now I'm a very happy Mac user. I'm still getting to know the Mac OS features, but the Powerbook is working pretty well until now. The screen is excellent!! It's very thin, light and has a very nice design. It comes with 512Mb but I bought an additional 1Gb memory from Transcend (excellent price!). The only problem I have until now (I've been using since Jan 14, 2006) it that after a sleep due to battery ending it seens to freeze the keyboard and trackpad and I need to turn it off and on, but this I still don't know if it's a hardware problem or a software bug. I'd recommend it! Serious QC Issues: Could Have been great.. But Isn't!! Bottom Line: Don't buy this iteration of the PowerBook - (...). On paper the specs are great. But, as several posters have said there are two huge problems with this PowerBook which Apple refuses to acknowledge let alone fix! First, there are profound issues with the audio. The audio skips and stutters randomly. I know I'm not the only one experiencing this difficulty. Apple has issued a Knowledgebase document on this issue http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302978. But the solution - if one can call it that - doesn't work and essentially implies this machine is seriously crippled in its ability to multitask. When I've called AppleCare they either deny the existence of the problem or have no solution. Second, there are profound issues with the screen. Apparently, there is horizontal banding of every second or third pixel row over the entire screen. Each pixel row is darker or lighter than it's neighboring pixel rows. This is a well documented seemingly ubiquitous issue over the entire line of new 15" PowerBooks and again a problem that Apple does not acknowledge. It appears some people have sent the computer in to AppleCare for repair for this issue and it was returned without any repair done the technicians claiming that the problem is "WITHIN SPEC" meaning that the screen is within the model specifications and that it is not a problem or they are shipped a replacement which exhibits the same problem. If you still feel like gambling on one the good news is Amazon has a great return policy so if you have one or both of these problems Amazon will take it back.
