PowerBooks on Feb 2nd?

Monday January 19, 2004 7:30 am PST by Arnold Kim
A few uncertain rumors floating around indicate that PowerBooks will see minor speed bumps to up to 1.42 GHz in the 17" High End come Feb 2nd. 15" PowerBooks are also reported to be increasing to 1.25 and 1.33GHz, while the 12" remain unchanged.

Could be, but that would widen the gap between the 12" PB and the others...

The G5 powermacs haven't been bumped since the launch and the powerbooks (which were bumped after the G5's) will get bumped again?

Not that there's an order that must be followed, but I think that Apple would be pushing the G5's as well.

If you still think that G4s won't ever go above 400MHz.

I hate to shatter your world, but there's this little tech phenomena called progress... :eek:

Of course it's Motorola, and they occasionally put the tech machinery into reverse. :p

Would it make more sense to toss in a G5 and underclock it?
