At a mere 1 inch thick, the 17-inch PowerBook is the thinnest of Apple's PowerBooks. Still, the 17-inch PowerBook is one of the best desktop replacements around. Sure, at $3,000, it costs $400 more than the HP and Apple's 15-inch PowerBook. Plus, this top-of-the-line PowerBook sports the same sleek anodized aluminum found on the smaller PowerBooks and is packed with features. For instance, at 6.9 pounds, it's 2.7 pounds lighter than the HP Pavilion zd7000, and it runs cooler. But the revamped 17-inch PowerBook G4 holds its own against the competition, with its unique backlit keyboard, gorgeous display, and relatively light weight.
Since Apple introduced the world's first 17-inch notebook earlier this year, other wide-screen portables have appeared on the scene.
Editors' note: The exact configuration of the 17-inch Apple PowerBook that CNET originally reviewed is no longer for sale, but you can find prices and specs for a similar version here.
