    17", 1.4 GHz G5, price hike




    Why does everyone think it's funny when Matsu does sh*t like this? He needs to knock it off.

    agreed - and thanks for the tease :-)



    my Q - has anyone dug up a link for a/the webcast? It's 2 AM EST in Toronto and I may as well stay up .. if it means watching His Steveness and basking in the RDF.



    cheers

    I tried sending her an e-mail which bounced back. Yet, during the week of Aug. 25, I received an offline instant message (she has my yahoo address), in which she was sticking to her claims, adding Paris as a possibility. Who knows, maybe wishful thinking on her part, along the fact that I reall want to believe her. I guess we'll all know soon.

    Thanks for the update. Keeping (slim) hope alive.

    If that's all Apple can offer then they better slash the prices of the Powerbooks or else no-one is going to buy them in anticipation of G5 powerbooks. I think Steve just might pull a rabit out of his hat tomorrow (or out of his turtleneck for that matter).

    I would most definitely have fallen for a 3.5 lbs 12-inch PowerBook. But we all know Matsu too well...



    The Apple Store is still up. Only an hour to go until the Stevenote begins. The new PowerBooks will be up on Apple's website in less than three hours. I'm off to catch some sleep. Gotta work tomorrow.



    Zzzzzzzz...

    I believe it's 7457 across the board with the following specs:



    12":

    1Ghz 40GB BT FW 800 USB 2



    15":

    1Ghz 60GB BT, FW 800 USB 2backlit keyboard

    1.3 Ghz 80GB BT, FW 800 USB 2backlit keyboard



    17":

    1.3 Ghz 80GB BT, FW 800 USB 2backlit keyboard

    CONFIRMED! 7447/57's across the board. Each CPU now sports 512KB L2 according to Apple's pages. That can't be a 7445/55 because those CPU's maxxed out at 256KB.



    12" superdrive machine is the best deal of the bunch now.
