12" or 15" powerbook


Recommended Posts

I choose a 12" for portablily, as i have a desktop machine to do my work on. just curious as to which you would prefer.

i know that cause i do graphic work, sometimes i wish i had a bigger screen. but it's for when i'm on the go or in a class or on the plane, there's room to spare :cool:

I'd choose the 12.1" if I already had a nice G5 or something for my desktop. But if it was my only mac I would go for 15"-17". If 17" is too heavy, go for the 15.2" for sure (I too love widescreen).

Since I have a G5, I would go for the 12" PowerBook (not an iBook G4). When I didn't have this G5, I had a 15" Aluminum PowerBook. Nothing could beat it as a portable desktop replacement. :D

I just bought a 15.2" Tibook last summer and if I did it again I would probably go with the 12" as I have two desktop PC's already. So now I'm thinking, the more portable I am, the better. With any luck my next portable will be a 12" G5 powerbook. But, I guess it really depends on what you're going to do with it, since I got my Tibook I hardly ever use my PC's anymore so I guess I'm glad that I went with the Tibook instead of the 12" because of the performance boost with the 15".
