James polished the top side of his 17″ PowerBook with car polish, but I think the Furry iBook (via Boing Boing) is just too cool….

At one time Apple products only appealed to Apple fanboys and nobody else. Sony is right now at this stage.

I don't know what people see in them. That reflective front glass on the display wasn't so distractive when it was only 10" on my Fujitsu subnote, but in 15"-17"... well, one can see someone is about to stab one's back, I suppose. Roy was looking at a Sony subnote that's smaller than my P5010. Get this, 20GB HD with 256KB RAM for close to HKD$19K! When asked about a bigger HD and RAM option, HD to no avail - not even for swapping, and up 256KB to 512KB RAM costs over $1200! And the salesman told him to add a MicroDrive or wait for the next version! That's the dark shop left adjacent to the Sony Shop in Ocean/Harbor Centre. Saw some Sonys this afternoon.
