Why was Apple's Coolest Laptop so... bad?

The PowerBook G4 was not only Apple's finest PowerPC system - but, in my opinion, it was also a staggering example for the entire industry to follow. The compromise of form over function at its best... at least, given it didn't snap in half easier than an iPad Pro. But can it run Minecraft?
I really enjoyed messing with this hardware and I hope to dive into even more PowerPC stuff in the future! There's still a lot of life left in these old computers, and if you run into a chance to pick one of these up, don't pass it up, it's seriously an awesome learning experience and a cool little time piece as well.
Sorry if my Japanese grammar was incorrect, I wrote it on a whim

oh hey, the powerbook g4! i found one of these in a landfill, it was specifically a 2005 model, and i've been trying to get it to working, sadly no luck but i'm gonna get a new PRAM bat for it, but that's cool that you got Just A Few powerbooks... you should slide one lol

haha thanks for watching! Hope you can get it working. I love the aluminum G4s so much, really classy machines for the time :)

What you're doing sounds crazy. You seriously attempted to use a PowerBook G4 from 2001 to achieve all the tasks that you normally do on your main PC.

Okay, I know what I did sounds crazy. But I seriously attempted to use a PowerBook G4 from 2002, to, to achieve all the tasks that I normally do on my main PC.

Owned one of these, it was an overheating, underpowered disaster. I've had a Macbook 2002(?), a G4 (2005), a Macbook (2008), a t510 thinkpad (neckbeard era), and now a 2018 MBP (intel and touchbar RIP). I'd love to get a m1 mac but the '18 MBP is still doing just fine.

Lmao yeah they were a little rough. Went through the ThinkPad phase too. Intel Macs are still very usable, here's to a long life for it! Thanks for watching :)
