I have a Toshiba labtop that is at least 7 years old and it's still in good shape. I never had any big problems with it. It runs Windows 95.

We used 2 laptops for comps only; we have a full desktop for regular work. 1 was MPLAB, the other was Dashboard!

I guess I found the advantage to PCs over Macs....

I wonder how a iBook would work after a 200 pound man stands on it for 5 minutes or drops it from 5 feet up

Long Live Toshiba!

I'd like to see any consumer laptop that survives a drop unscathed.

Yeah, we had 5 or 6 laptops at the CR too (none of them Macs, thankfully ) and a couple of $1000 access points and a hub - lots of wires! But our human player went through the Cisco course and has a knack for running cable in an orderly and safe fashion, so no worries there.

one of our mentors (and my physics teacher) is an mac genius, he works at a mac store in his free time... we had a sweet network at our competitions with a 21'' iMAC in our pit, connected to some network, so we could control the iMAC from the stands with several powerbook g4's.. only the iMAC was ours though, we mooched the g4's from our mentors for the competiton

I whole-heartedly agree... just look at them. Now, after you have admired the iBook and Powerbook long enough, compare them to the PCs (Remember....PC is short for Piece of 'crud'). Which would you rather own? Even if your only factor was size...the PCs are massive!
