Re: [Digital BW] Anyone using an Apple G4 Powerbook for digital B/W?

Mike,

I'm not sure why it is happening... Pieces started to break off the frame,
the screw came out in the back, one of the hinges is now out and more pieces
have broken off.  I always buy the Apple Protection plan so it should be
alright under warranty. No, I have never dropped it, I baby it...

There is a tiny piece that broke off the front of the frame where it closes
a few months back but I can never part with it to get anything fixed, now
I'm forced to.

The screen is amazing... wide, I like it.

As for the compaq... no comment. <g>
