The price drops are nice as is the fact that all Macs have at least a Combo Drive now too. One thing though, with the drop of $200 down to $799 on the Combo Drive eMac, the hard drive capacity dropped as well from 60GB to 40GB. But it's still a great deal for that price (as is the SuperDrive model now for $1,099) and they all have Panther pre-loaded too.

gack! well done apple. well done indeed! Finally, a truly low end machine that still is very nice. My family has the 1 Ghz combo emac and couldn't be happier. For $800 that is truly fantastic.

In the UK, with an education discount, £549 for a 1GHz eMac with Panther.

That has to be very tempting to people curious about what you can do on a Mac

Finally, Apple has recognized me as the marketing genius that I am, and has taken my advice.

Next stop is 100% market share!

The entry level price in the UK with an education discount is £569 which is just silly- in a positive kind of way

So, my question is, how does the 14 inch ibook compare to my 17in aluPB rev 1? seems to me e verything but ram speed is same or better, oh, and minus the fw800: screen size... obvious, mabye not a drawback

If Apple increases now the MHz count and/or the Graphic cards, they will enter mass market with the eMac, for sure. Bring on the best and most affordable Mac ever!

Well it looks like proc wise the 14 is as fast as the lower pb's and pretty close to the high end pb's. Surely we can't be too far away from a more dramatic update on the PB. Any idea the limit on the proc speed for the G4 in mobile form? I'd love to get a pb soon, but am very power hungry. I'd hate to wait but if they are updating the iBook surely the pb isnt far behind?
