Suspicions piqued: PowerBook wait: 7days; PowerMac 10 days.
As was mentioned about the PowerMac delayed 10 days at the online Apple Store, the PowerBook raises some suspicion too. It is a 7-day wait at the Apple Store. The old iMac is 1 to 3 day wait; as is the case even with the new iBook 14-inch screen. Could there be a surprise lurking 'round the corner with all pro stuff? We shall see!.....

Not staggerlingly unusual for the Books though.

I'll have to stop by tomorrow just to make sure that it wasn't some sort of mistake.

it's probably the "old" Powerbook 667 with DVD-ROM.
PowerMacs will not be updated within 10 days. if they were going to they would have just announced them at MWSF. it would be dumb to lose out on the free marketing and the 90,000 mac users going through the expo hall using the new products.
<strong>Hmm.. Maybe. I would at least hope they are updating, as I am getting ready to order one, but I have decided to wait till Tokyo just to be on the safe side.</strong><hr></blockquote>
They always update them about two weeks after you buy one
