excellent, small, but one thing for the guys
This is a great computer. No complaints, just one funny observation. This this is so small, when i'm sitting down with it on my lap, i have to keep my legs closer together than I would normally like when I'm sitting. So guys, no spread eagle when this thing is on your lap! haha.

Wow!
This is an amazing computer. It's even smaller than the specs say. It says it weighs 5.4lbs, but it actually weighs 4.6! Lighter than most textbooks. Completely full featured, lacking in nothing, this is THE computer to have if you need portability but don't want to sacrifice features. It's super speedy and even includes a 24x cd burner (or a DVD burner if you pop for it). True portability in an affordable package. The most affordable powerbook ever. It's solidly constructed, sounds great and it's sexy as hell. Get one, you know you want it!

Roxios easy cd creator, what in the world is that!!!! ichat rocks. and safari, #1 on my list. get out of ur pc world people it really isnt worth it to come home to a computer that that freezes ever 5 seconds. the battery last for 3:30 hours and when u watch a dvd it last 1:30, so i wouldnt get this if i were a lord of the ring fan. but overall i wouldnt have choosen any other computer. thanks APPLE!!!!

This thing "burns"! It's too "hot"!
I bought this 12" powerbook from Amazon a month ago and do like its look. But I need to let everyone know this machine has severe HEAT problem. I bet that's why the problem has gone down [$$$] recently. The Apple support claims they have never heard something like this and insist me to bring it back to AppleStore. If you go to google and do a search on "apple powerbook 12" heat problem" and you will find all kinds of discussion on this. It looks good...BUT..please don't buy it unless you are going to use some kickboxing wrist PADs or wear two layered JEANS. I hope no one has to suffer like I do. Cannot even get rid of it on eBay since the problem is so well known now. Steve Jobs said it's hottest! I TOTALLY agree this is "the" "hottest" powerbook ever. I previously used IBM, Dell, SONY, Asus and Toshiba notebook....I guess I can fairly claim the problem in a way ;-) Good luck to you new Apple users.

Small & Light - Hot & Short
Small full featured machine that's also light weight. Nothing in the PC world like it.
Hot! This machine really heats up to a quite uncomfortable level.
Short Battery life. It's a joke. But it will get you through a two hour DVD, if you have an almost full charge.
