Wow, a lot of people have sprung for the Rev C on the first day! I'm impressed! Not to change the subject here, but even after 3 revisions, I'm still happy with my Pismo! It has I…

I don't quite understand why people are SO excited about this new PB - don't get me wrong, it's nice, but it's really not revolutionary. Aside from about 3 more pixels and a sligh…

Geforce 4 with 64Mbs would have been better. Apple should dump ATI.

No IrDA port? Now I feel better that I bought Rev B with an IrDA port to Synchronize with my Palm although I have to boot Palm Desktop in OS 9. The new PB looks excellent to me. Au…

Well 'mate' your not giving the Australian dollar enough justes. It is actualy like .53. It is pretty funny that the 'Faster' powerbook is more than $2,000AD cheaper in the USA t…

I bought a 550 in early March. Last Friday Apple agreed that they would treat it as DOA owing to a recurrently faulty Power Adapter. I was told by them today that they have ordere…

I started to check out the Powerbook Forum, and here is a screen capture of what I was looking at. Something is just plain wrong. http://www.ece.concordia.ca/~s_donova/pbforum.tif…

That's sick! Not to mention very annoying...

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. With a developer's discount, it would have been an e…

I am getting a "demo model" (never been opened though!) 667 for $1849 I cannot wait, it's going to run circles around my TiBook 500

i know i'm not the brightest guy in the whole world.. but how can a demo model be un-opened? doesn't that totally go against the concept of it being a demo..
