OSNews featured tworeviews of the new 12" Powerbook from Apple last month. Using a machine and more fairly evaluating it, is a continuous process, so when new facts emerge, we should be reporting them back. So, what I discovered this weekend is that my 12" Powerbook doesn't like... the mountains. Read on, it is an interesting issue. Update: The issue is now logged at Apple's tech support db.

BTW, this is for that sarcastic guy who said "shouldn't it work to the moon/mars?".
Well, if this powerbook or any laptop shouldn't work in the 1900 meters high, then the hotel would not offer wireless services, would they? I mean, what is the point if no computer works up there, to have a full ISP inside the hotel and offer wireless services to customer's laptops?
Again, 1900 meters is NOT too high to really cause problems to devices, but it is not sea level either. But it is high enough for Fujitsu it seems...
