Robert's collection of 4 Apple laptops, ranging from the new Unibody 13" 2.53Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro, underneath a 9 year old 15" 400Mhz G4 Titanium PowerBook, then a 4 year old 15" 667Mhz G4 Aluminum PowerBook, and last but not least, a previous generation 15" 2.5Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro.

That is a great photograph. I have 3 of those 4 generations. Well had. One is now with my mother, one with a friend, and the current is with me. The last mac I had that died was in 2001 and it was really beat up before something fried..can't remember what though, it was 9 years ago after all. But the one I got to replace it is still running, just very slowly.
Save the dings and scratches, the PowerBook line since 2001 has aged very well. This photo makes me a bit sad as my own 12" 1.5Ghz G4 Powerbook (nearing it's 5th birthday) has been put into semi-retirement by my new 27" iMac i5. Thing is, I don't think I'll every be able to get rid of it.
i have a similar collection, short the uni-body.
the Titanium PowerBook G4 is hands down THE BEST FORM FACTOR notebook i have ever used.
I'm typing this on my 12" Powerbook G4 1 Ghz. Best Apple notebook I've ever owned, and I've owned quite a few; Powerbook G3 "Wallstreet", PB G3 "Pismo" and my recently retired iBook G3 800 Mhz. It'll hopefully be a few years before I "upgrade" again...
