I've been using a 12" PBook G4 for the last 18 months, no hardware problem so far ... The screen is definitely much better in terms of colours & contrast compared to my old Fujitsu Lifebook, and the current Dell notebook provided by my company.bigfatfish said:actually i am more concerned about the durability.
fujitsu which is quite a reputable brand died on me twice. first time had to replace motherboard, now after warranty expire some months ago, the computer died again.
for Mac, i was looking at the Imac g5 or the Ibook g4.
any mac users out there experienced reliability issues?
bigfatfish said:Hi guys , the current IMAC g5 on the apple website is the Revision B model right?
According to the webpage, only the OS Tiger and iLife is given, so i was wondering if the mac has any software equivalent to Excel and Words ? And roughly how much?

sky888 said:I own a iBook G4.. the specs you have mention are good enough for any hobbyist photograhper.. spec wise, there is no need to go for powerbook (although they are good in their own class and for more professional use)
the only complanint I have for my 14" iBook is that it is damn heavy, when compared to my previous sony vios.. feels like over 3kg on my hands (but I could be wrong)
bigfatfish said:finally decided to go with the Imac G5, but have one more query.
If i decide to add 1gb of ram, what options do I have? Should i just go with apple or there are reliable 3rd party rams that would not void the warranty etc etc.
