Maybe if we are lucky, they will update Powerbooks to have its 512 of ram in one slot like the iBook, because what a pain in the ass to upgrade.
Still, 4200 RPM hardrives too. Forget this, I love the iBook and all, but I'm going for the powerbook. If this was apples strategy I guessed it work. The iBook's specs aren't high enough now i have to spend an extra $300.

The PB's have been like that for a while.
What a boring update though - nothing very exciting at all... very minor

The RAM on the powerbooks aren't that hard to upgrade, it's only 3 screws to remove the memory cover.The one RAM in one slot on the iBook is almost impossible to upgrade as it is soldered directly on the motherboard.

so now, my 1.33GHz Powerbook only has a better graphics card... and was about $500 more. But it was still worth it at the time. I also like the keyboard much better.
