Apple PowerBook G4
The good: Sublime Apple design; lighter than other comparably sized laptops; motion sensor protects hard drive; 512MB of RAM standard; scrolling trackpad; built-in wireless and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR; illuminated keyboard.
The bad: Expensive; features an older G4 processor, not a G5; only 90 days of toll-free telephone support.
The bottom line: The foxy Apple 17-inch PowerBook delivers the performance and the features most users will need, but it's more expensive than a similarly outfitted Windows laptop.
