The Apple Powerbook G3 PDQ is by and far the best laptop ever, indeed. Modular, easy to repair and even the CPU is on a swappable board. A breath of fresh air in the world of soldered in components!

I have 3 Macs running. I love them, but that doesn't mean I can't criticise them for falling behind.

I pretty much daily use a MacBook Air and an arm windows laptop costing about half the price. I use the MacBook Air at home for administrative and basic tasks, but the arm laptop is actually useful and runs software that I need... MacBooks at this point are just like luxury cars they have way more features than they need and are polishing areas that appear good but not necessarily are good for everyday requirements.
