[Misc.] The Ups and Downs of Mac laptops

Phil's got a great article on Mac laptop experiences. I have a PowerBook G4 that I've been using for about 3 years. I don't think I should have to take special care of my laptop so I don't. Even with the abuse I dish out to my PowerBook, it is running just fine. I did replace the battery about 6 months ago.

I haven't bought a new MacBook Pro (or whatever they are called) because they don't make a 12 inch.

However, after reading Phil's article, I am glad I haven't. Another CS faculty is having similar problems with his MacBook.

I don't love OS X as much as Phil and the Dell Windows box I put on my office desk is working fine until the rumored MacBook Pro Slim 12 incher materializes (and I wait a while for the bugs to get worked out).
