I guess it's hard to write in about a correction. It is true that the MacBook Pro wouldn't come out for another year, and it is no secret that Apple notebook sales really didn't skyrocket until after the Intel switch. More than likely, if you were a student headed to school in 2005, a PowerBook or iBook wouldn't have been your first choice if you weren't already an Apple person.
