So it's $500 more just for .16GHz faster? Erm...I'll be saving my $500 if that's the case!

Fastest notebook my ass. They only have the 1.67 and 1.83 Ghz duos.

 

[harveypooka]

Shipping Feb! He can't do that!

 

[sluthy]

Wow, okay, um...wow.

I was envisioning thousands of angry posts when it went down to the wire without mentioning portables, and then the classic "one more thing"

4-5x faster hey. Anyone still think the Intel move was wrong??!??

Wait a minute, when they said "2 processors in each", does that mean 2 cores, or 2 Core Duos...

 

[brepublican]

The first environmentally friendly notebooks. Powered only by love. The more you love em, the more it charges the battery.

 

[atszyman]

Does this make my PowerBook G4 a collector's item?

 

[swindmill]

I can't wait to see what this looks like. I guess for those of us who want a smaller laptop, we will have to go with the MacBook non-pro?

 

[Doctor Q]

I didn't expect that Apple would give up the use of "power", but I think it's a smart move. It served its purpose.

How long will it be before another word replaces "book"?

 

[muzikool]

Crap those are expensive.

 

[abates25]

They aren't too expensive

But...have....to...wait...until...february.........won't....last.....arrrrrrgggggghhhhh

 

[BlizzardBomb]

Fastest notebook my ass. They only have the 1.67 and 1.83 Ghz duos.

It has 2 processors. So in effect it's a Quad 1.83Ghz!

 

[jlewis2k1]

um no thank you im not willing to pay 2000 bucks for a laptop. i will stick with the ibooks. what happened to these little rumors about price drops? that aint no drop.

 

[jacobj]

Signature update done!

 

[Lara F]

Well, I got an iMac only last year so it feels strange to know how outdated it is now. But that's ok, it's still a great machine.

And I can't wait to be able to get the MacBook Pro...woo! The next revision's gonna be mine. Sweeeeet.

[FocusAndEarnIt]

Yeah, this 4-5x faster means nothing...

 

[steve_hill4]

So is this ONLY 15" ???

Don't care personally. It was the 15" PowerBook I was after, so this is perfect.

If our system at work allows it, I'm ordering mine tomorrow, (along with out standard 2 year guarantee and of course staff discount of 12% off retail price).
