Review of the 12-Inch PB in Wall Street Journal


Walter Mossberg, the WSJ’s technology guru reviewed the 12-inch PowerBook G4 in his 16 January column. He gave it very high marks. I wonder if he had a pre-production or stock model?

The 12-inch PowerBook is one sweet little laptop. Sheathed in an aluminum case, it has the feel of a finely made camera. And it’s the smallest notebook I’ve tested that sports a full range of features, including one I’ve never seen on a compact laptop. Yet it’s significantly less expensive than some comparable Windows laptops.
