Harloe Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Just wondering what everyone here prefers as the notebook line product name, MacBook/MacBook Pro or Powerbook I personally prefer the 'Powerbook' title! Be cool if they kept this name or brought it back! Like.. Powebook Pro! or something =] Just thought this would be a fun little thread Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/85038-mac-notebooks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
macprodan Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Er, no. The Power in PowerBook means Power PC. Hence the reason they changed it. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/85038-mac-notebooks/#findComment-603749 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the old names better. They should add Mac to the name of everything replacing i where ever possilbe. Like the Mac Pod, or better yet the iMac becomes the Mac Mac. lol Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/85038-mac-notebooks/#findComment-603929 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazlo Falconi Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Macbook/Macbook Pro. iBook just sounds cheesy. I always hated the name, thought it sounded like those lame kids learning "laptops" they sell at Wal-Mart with the one line LCD screens. Powerbook isn't so bad, but Macbook Pro really has the zazz. Also as far as design goes, the newer models are much better. I liked Apple products up until they started that whole clamshell thing with the iBooks, and the Bondi Blue iMac, and didn't buy or use anything Apple again until the flat panel iMacs came out.
