Mystery solved. From page 24 of Apple Nova's 26-page pb thread.

I heard the delay was because they were putting double the love into every powerbook! You just can't come up with that much love all at once! Damn the supply chain!!!
No-one seems to be mentioning the eMac as much now. The Powerbook is obviously due to be updated soon, as it has such long shipping times now, but the eMac is still same business day delivery.
I was really hoping Apple would decide one way or the other what it's doing with the eMac line now the Mini is here.

I see future for the eMac, people in education who want a cheap mac with a CRT screen. But the mini mac is the same without the screen. Apple is removing possible profits from the education sector by allowing them to purchase without a screen, however, there also allowing more people to buy because of the flexibility. At the moment Apple might as well keep the eMac going, if it sells really well i'm sure they'll update it, of it doesn't sell they wont. We may see a 1.42 GHz upgrade soon.
nope, it's because it looks like she's strolled in from a bondage convention* going on in the next hall, but the macheads were all like, hey, just get in the picture anyway
*important: this is not to say that they arent people (guys or gals, hot or not or whatever) that aren't into both BDSM and Macs.
Thanks guys.......... there's some really hot men in those pictures Anyway.... I had class last night and stopped in my good old University computer store. I was told that apple is not accepting anymore powerbook orders until the spring pricing is out. They were told last Tuesday, so their expecting it any day now. I have a deposit down so hopefully when they start shipping my school computers I'll be the first to get one. I never thought spending $3000 would be sooooooo hard.

Apple's edu customers balked at the iMac because of the LCD.
Wouldn't an iMac be easier to steal? It's not as bulky as the eMac.
That's it. Really, it's the end of the powerbook. There will not be new ones.
Anyway, All I care about is that they get them out before May!!!!
Hope it's not a repost, though I doubt you guys'd let this one slip by. Quali-T.

definitely, those PowerBooks and iBooks are sexy!

Couldn't care less (I already have access to all four models on those pictures...).
What I really want is a *PBG5* (although I wouldn't complain if it came with one of those new iPod shuffle chicks).
As for the sexy powerbooks........ got any pictures with guys.... a female needs to look at something too

That hot redhead seems strangely out of place in that picture.

Because she's the only one not holding a laptop?

This pic is dubbed: G5 Powerbook. Very Risque.
And if you add sexy + powerbook....
You get Steve and his little friend
