How is it? I think the savings from the 800 model is worth getting the 667, and I doubt the speed is all that noticeable....
Please post thoughts. Thanks!
I very much agree with you, and it has been said that the new PB 667Mhz is 60% faster then the old 667Mhz, it seems to also run cooler, they are both great machines!
Congrats Appl…
Must agree with previous post. It'll still be awhile before I buy, but the shop that I work for has one on display and I played around for a bit on it throughout today. The speed…
There is a $700 price difference between the two; is it really worth it? My mind is settling more toward the 667, especially since I can transfer my 48 gig 5400 RPM hard drive from…

Is there some reason you can't install the 48 gig drive into the 800? I was considering ordering a custom 800 w/ the 30 gig drive, swapping it and the 48 in my Ti 500, and selling…

I ordered the 667 with a 40 gig drive and airport card last tuesday. It shipped friday, so I should get it monday or tuesday.

Yes. The drive fits …
seanyepez -- I think you mean "No, the drive fits perfectly." Confused me for a minute.
I'm not sure what urrl5201 mean by that comment, but I am leaning toward the 800. I have a…
I wish I could get a new TiBook, but I still have to finish paying my 550 off.... lol
Plus, I need more RAM. I was wondering, could one of you guys who is getting a new PB post s…
I think the 667 model is the better value for me. The price jump to the 800 is just too much, especially since I already have an AirPort card that will come out of my iBook when I…
I'm also going to be buying a new PowerBook soon to replace my Pismo 400... haven't decided yet on the 667 or 800. I can't wait to see some benchmarks to see exactly what kind of g…

So you're looking at roughly $450 difference or a…
Here are some reasons I went with the 667...

Here's a thought; I was really ticked off because I could not find the Apple Store in Miami. Discovered it was further south in the Kendall area. I hate Dade county. I almost got i…
