There are five planets visible in the night sky (just after sunset) for the next couple of weeks too. This surely MUST mean that updates are coming for absolutely, positively certain. :D

No, sadly, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow again this past Tuesday, meaning six more weeks without updates.
 
I forgot to mention, I didn't realise all hardware sold on Apple Australia's Education site includes a 3 year warranty standard along with the discount. This is pretty nice of them.

Its been that way for years, it even includes ipods. However, the havemorefun promo sucks, you can't get CTO models and you have to buy the specified models to be eligible.

i am a complete newb to the whole apple world. i have been reading forums, reviews and talking to other people around my school with macs and have decided to get the next update of the 15" PB, i dont really care what the speed is becuase im pretty much just going to use it for when i go to college in the fall (photojournalism). the most ill be doing on it is adobe photoshop...and maybe some light Premiere. i still have a P4 3.0ghz HT so i can do the heavy stuff on there. from what i hear a mac laptop is going to be most reliable. this i prolly the wrong place to asked for some unbiased information but if anyone thinks i should do otherwise please let me know.

MY FIRST POST! :D

If you get the Powerbook be sure and order the faster 80 gig 5200rpm hard drive. The stock hard drive is pathetically slow at 4200 rpm.
Also get at least 1 gig of RAM from a third party vendor. (Apple is way too expensive for their RAM prices)
 
I'll give Powerpage the benefit of the doubt, and say that Saturday includes this week. So, still one more day to go. If they aren't released tomorrow though... never visiting Powerpage ever again, after he stated as FACT that they would be released this week. If it's a rumor... call it a rumor, don't state is as fact or you're just flushing your credibility down the toilet. :mad:

Good that there's no new pb since I just got my new PB last week after placing order within a week. If there's any update, my PB should have arrived later than this with some delay notice.

I wouldn't mind if Apple's going release new PB in couple of months :(
 
friday Release

I kinda saw that coming. :( But of course I'm still hoping.. Has Apple ever released anything on a Friday or Saturday ?

Actually... I think the iBook G4s were released on a Friday.
 
OK Fine.

There will be a new laptop this week. This isn't speculation. This isn't a guess. Trust me. I have reason to know.

Yeah, this week that's over. No not this week (thats ending today). But this coming week. I figured an intelligent person would realize what I meant... but I guess not. And history will be my vindication. This coming week. Also I don't need to justify myself or my knowledge and being new to this forum has nothing to do with legitimacy. But since you dont care for my info..I will post no more.
