lol, theres been rumors of powerbooks coming out many times since august...but we'll have to wait n see, but a powerbook is way too expensive for me...if they kept the current 667 model n took off $1000 CDN to it or something, idd buy it
I wouldn't put it past Apple to release a new PowerBook on the 5th, and not ship it until after January 1st. That way they wouldn't have to fool with OS 9, and they would have Jaguar pre-loaded. Like Steve said, OS 9 is dead, and it would be smart for Apple to start eliminating it in each new product release for this point on. One OS is going to help switchers figure out what they are doing much easier.
that's a very valid point. i drool over these large LCDs but i simply can't pay these prices for a monitor that i pay for a desktop system. the 15" isn't much of a main monitor but it could certainly be a nice palette monitor. and for some, it could serve as a main display (they only do email, word, etc.) i'd like the 15" to stick around. maybe someday i can get a 19" lcd is the price is right. i have 4 giant crts generating oodles of heat around me right now - and taking up all but a keyboard's worth of space on my desks.
. I am using an apple CRT 17 " studio display and I love it. No need for an LCD till they go down in price.
wow, I guessed this in June, crazy?
Ah, but dude, have you seen a 17" Apple LCD? They are SO beautiful!!!! (image wise, not for just aesthetic reasons)Originally posted by scem0
Right now, CRTs offer good enough quality and resolution to make LCDs not worth the money unless you really like pretty things
Railhead mentioned it in December 2001
Someone at macnn just ordered the Formac and I'm looking into it. He;s gonna give me a review after he gets it. I will sacrifice the 1" down to get a 650:1 contrast ratio compared to Apple's 350:1. So it the Formac is nice, I'll put my CD on ebay and get the $1700 Formac and might make a little cash extra.
