Apple Product Page Being Updated!

[Hockey Nut]

I just tried to get into the Apple Product page and it is being updated.

It's Tuesday!!! Hopefully new 15" Powerbooks!

 

[bokdol]

oh my god

may be the ipod

 

[Hockey Nut]

Actually it's the Apple Store. I guess I got too excited.

 

[yzedf]

I want both!

 

[Bear]

Maybe Apple was waiting for a week when nobody was predicting products would be announced?

 

[Kwyjibo]

Interestng when did it first go down.

 

[Mr. Anderson]

Ok, we're getting 3 or more threads on this. Not all should be active. Closed the other one, this was first.

D

 

[Bear]

I see no changes. Could this have been just routine maintenance?

 

[melchior]

i was really excited there for a about 15 seconds... but the store is still up. nothing is happening it would seem.

So they are. Kind of easy to miss that fact when you're looking for something new.

If I recall correctly, the lower price was with 256MB of RAM, so it could be a discounted price. Although compared to an eMac, the price does suck immensely.

Is it me, or that a bit of a sad end to the computer that saved Apple?

 

[conceptdev]

LCD Prices dropped, I think.

 

[yzedf]

argh!

No G3 iMac anymore?! That's it?

Just for giggles I worked up a BTO 17" PB and it is still "3-5 weeks" to ship...

No new 15.x" PB...

No new iPod... and the "starting from $299" is a out and out lie now.

No new iBook

Yep, I know ... but when they close a hotel in Las Vegas to build a new one, they blow the damn thing up in celebration!

There's also a cluster node Xserve with no CD-rom or video card.

How boring....

OK. That's a bit interesting. (Also not in UK store yet...)

I just checked at my school and the low-end CRT iMac is selling for $649. Lookes like the education store for your school is all messed up.

You know its entirerly possible that Apple has added a script to the Apple store which will change the page at 9am PST, or some other time today. This way they can do work during the morning, when traffic is lighter, then have an automatic script do the switch when they need to.
