Greatest “Classic” Mac Laptop: Powerbook G3 Pismo ...
I don't remember this being an issue at all. My 1Ghz G4 laptop was a workhorse for me for software development back then. I do remember fan noise though, and paint flaking off the case.

The G4 was old news when that laptop came out. I had a G4 tower in the 90's. Apple promised much more and couldn't deliver.

Yes, that's a good point. The G5 was a failure, ran too hot, didn't perform as well as hoped and hence the move to Intel.
