PowerBook pricing in Canada has become far more reasonable for Canadians in the last couple of years. Users are paying thousands of dollars less now than they would have payed 2-3 years ago for the the high end PB that you speak of. So I'm certainly not going to be complaining. Owning a PowerBook is within reach for the average Canadian consumer.

We have our strong Canadian dollar to thank for this, definitely NOT Apple. I do however bet that more PowerBooks are moving off the shelves in Canada now, more than ever before. It would be interesting to see some statistics...
