I hope it is true. Then I can get a decent deal on an 800. My 500 is showing its age now...

That is really tight, I only wish that I had the means to pay for it. A 1 GHz powerbook - I would think - would get to hot, but I'm sure that has been argued over many, many times. I cant wait to test those and dual 1.25's at CompUSA later.. :D:D:D

Well I'm more than willing to trade a few thousand of my notes in exchange for a 1Ghz PowerBook G4, with SuperDrive.......... :D

Metoo.

My Pismo is lovely, but 1Ghz +Superdrive will make it worth moving on.

I won't whinge about prices until they are released.

I've been waiting for a new PowerBook upgrade for a while. I hope they add Bluetooth this time around.

Rumour has it the Belkin PC card works with 10.2, so no more D-link dongle!

To believe that web site is to be a fool. That site has no credibility.
