MWSF starts on the 10th

NoOne is sure which 'Book will come out first

iBook-Pros-Would be fast,less Pro PPC app run on it so would Emulation would not be a big of an issue

Cons- It would be faster then the Pro Based Apple LapTop for intel Apps and
Mac OSX

PowerBook
Pros-Would be fastest raw speed Laptop which it should be
Cons-Emulation would make Pro PPC Apps slow and since its a Pro laptop it would hurt PB line

Maybe the rumour sites have got it all wrong, and it IS the Powerbook thats being updated rather than iBooks.

No it is not stupid... IF you have the money... ;)

but if you have to sell your microwave, your TV, or a picture of your sister in order to get the money... then it is REALLY STUPID! :p
