iBook user here, 3 years already. up and running just like its first day!

@Criptonox89 - Well, what you said is only partly true.

I bring my laptop to uni everyday in my normal bag in a small protector laptop-hugging bag. my laptop was accidentally dropped from 0.7 metre high table twice, and I'm sure when it's in my bag the impact count would be like countless.

Still it's up and running with no problems after 3 years.


NOW I can officially say iBook rocks. Lol...

I never turn off my ibook. Just close the lid and let it hibernate. The startup is instant as long as there is still power by battery.

Well, I'm an electrical & computer systems engineering student, but I do a bit of free lance design work. In terms of designs, I have no complaints. The rendering speed of apple is indisputable. In terms of engineering softwares... I found a replacing program of PSpice for circuit simulation (MacsSpice), and C++ programming software for mac is quite widely available.

when I need to use a software that's only dedicated to XP, Virtual PC comes into focus. ...
