I have been trying out some various apple laptops,
primarily for use as a writing tool, though I want to
surf wirelessly.
I have a 1400 - too slow on the Internet. I bought a
Clamshell iBook. I liked it, but somehow my daughter
ended up with it.
Then I bought a severely upgraded wallstreet, now a
g4-500, and while I love the way it works, I dislike
both the size and the heat factor. As a writer, I feel
distracted by the heat coming up through my fingers.
I have heard the Pismos run much cooler.
I want small size, battery longevity, cool running,
wireless ability (doesn't have to be built-in as long
as I can add on).
I love those 12" white iBooks and would buy a used one
of those in a heartbeat, except I keep running into
people who are having repair nightmares with them.
Do pismos really run a lot cooler than wallstreets?
Are the white iBooks really just waiting to die? I
just don't want to spend $350-$450 on a 12" iBook and
have the logic board go after a few months.
Would like to hear comments from any other users on
the above.
Tom
