iBook Computers As Inexpensive Netbooks?

IBook Computers As Inexpensive Netbooks?

More and more mobile warriors need a portable ‘netbook’. This is a computer that will be used basically for surfing the web and other light tasks such as email and word processing.

Of course, if price is no object, the MacBook Air is the Ferrari/Bently/Rolls Royce choice.

But how about a blast from the past. Remember the iBook Computers?

Portable, sturdy, relatively light weight, and you can get them used for a very good price.

Beware, though. When buying from eBay, there are dangers lurking.

iBook Computers: What’s In a Name? Everything!

iBook Computers: What’s In a Name? Everything!

I read an interesting article today about iBook Computers, that really hit home. I’ve switched to the Mac after many years of PC hell, and I am so happy I did.

Every day, I discover another reason about my experience with Apple and Macs that makes up the whole enjoyable experience.

Take for example, buying a computer. One of my friends recently told me that they wanted a laptop. I was sitting with a PC fan. He rattled off the names of several Toshiba and Sony laptops, names like Portege and VAIO, followed by numbers, letters and so forth.

She asked me what I thought.

I asked her what she thought about getting a Mac. She said she heard great things about them. Then she asked what she should get. Since I knew that she liked and could afford the finer things, I suggested a MacBook Pro.

OK, she asked, grabbing for pen and paper, when I go to the store, what should I ask for. The paper was already filled with all those numbers and letters from PC land.

I said simply, MacBook Pro. That’s all?, she asked. That’s all she said.

Any options?, she wanted to know. Big or small (15 or 17), I said.

Any others? I said, fast or faster?

And that was it. She looked at me incredulously and said, you mean all I have to do is walk into an Apple Store (she had never been in one) and say give me a MacBook Pro 15 inch, and that’s it? I nodded, and she said simply, I want to deal with a company like that. And she went off, easily buying her Mac that afternoon, and is happy as clam with it.

It’s the same buying stuff from the web.

So, when I read this article about how the iBook Computers started it all (along with the PowerBook), it really hit home.

What’s in a name? Quite a bit actually.

Are those beeps e-mail’s death knolls?

Are those beeps e-mail’s death knolls?

There’s more and more buzz about the problems with emails. Even though I may be old school enough to check my inbox on the road with one of Apple’s old IBook Computers, sometimes enough is enough.

I read an article in the Seattle Times today that quoted a stat that 28 percent of a knowledge worker’s day was spent dealing with emails!

That’s staggering!

Some have taken to autoresponders alerting the senders of emails that the recipient is only answering emails at certain times in the day. It quotes Tim Ferriss, author of The Four Hour Work Week.

Note to those thinking about that feature. One of my employees almost got my iBook Computer non-surgically implanted in his cranium when I got one of these messages back from him about a pressing matter.

That withstanding, consider cutting down on constantly checking and responding to emails
