Yes I went and sought out a 12: powerbook this week for my self. I have a 17" MBP and a imac, my wife has the same also. the only problem is being in the army, I was on exercise for the last few weeks. I ended up not taking my 17" as I did not want to throw it around. So I looked at a macbook air, but no drive and I just do not like the macbooks so ended up getting this little baby.

Here are some more photos, it gives you an idea of size. I have just upped the ram and about to install a 7200rpm drive and it will be fine for my every day tasks of browsing the web and itunes and watching films. Which is all I do on my other machines.

Sweet, Shoppy, the 12" PBook is my favorite laptop of all time. I was sad when I had to retire mine. The Air is a bit disappointing because I was hoping for a 12" MacBook Pro.

Tell me about it, if it had a backlit keyboard it would be the ultimate laptop.
