Re: Anyone using an Apple G4 Powerbook for digital B/W?

2002-01-31 by graphicsnz

I've been using a TiBook G4 for a year with no problems on my 
travels. 
It's worth it over an iBook not only for the wide screen and lighter 
weight, but also the video out will drive a 21" monitor in 24bit as 
an extended desktop - palettes on the Ti (iBook has limited video 
mirroring). Wouldn't sell it for this reason - as it's a desktop 
replacement. Wouldn't sell my Cube either, but have regularly 
updated desktop towers (I find too noisy now). Colour calibration 
is hopeless on any LCD screen, worse on laptop LCD.
Battery life on the go can be as little as 2hrs with Wacom tablet, 
bus-powered Firewire drives & USB bits plugged, but the 
recharge is quick.
