My main strategy has been to carry my PowerBook in a regular case that does
not look like a laptop carrier. And I never take my eyes off it, even when
it has to go through the x-ray machine; I don't allow anyone to rush me

Hi - I have a new pismo with a dvd player. If I decide to (or need to)
reinstall a new OS - like 9.2, will the dvd player still play dvds? The
player isn't software driven is it? Or if it is, will any OS CD have the
necessary software already in it?
Thanks

I don't know about those on here, but as usual, there have been people wanting
speculation on any new line of iBooks coming out on the Apple boards. Of course Apple
won't have any specualtion or rumors going around.

Still you are correct that the new iBook is a far
better computer than the old Ti. Much more powerful,
better video, combo drive instead of DVD ROM and most
important, that new computer smell. All you lose is
the screen size, but you make it up

I know that Apple has increased the resolution on the
TiBooks at various times, but I don't know what the
