If you type Power Book into the search function on apple's website the price comes up as $2199. What gives?
 
i think it's just a misplaced graphic. if you look at its file name, you'll see that it's named as 082501.jpg which wud be aug. 25, 2001. what do u think?
 
I also did a search on Power Mac and it says from $1699 however the name of that file is powermac071801.gif. . . so I'm not sure that date means much . . .
 
also if you do a search on e mac it says from $999 hmmmm
 
that would be nice dual proc laptops would be nice too . . .
 
dual tibook? don't think i'll ever see one? i'd rather see a new line of tibook, g5 chip! but then i guess we won't be seeing it till 2004 or so tho there's a rumor about having a new line of tibook coming up in mwsf.
 
could this be something like with today's powermac line-up change?? They have a promotion on the powerbooks at the moment (on educational store) and they end on the 25th of September. Does this mean that there will be a change on the 25th???

Strange, did the same thing.

its $999 at the education store. also, isnt the $2199 (or whatever) the education price? maybe thats what it refers to.
 
The education price is $2249 that is more than $2199 and how do you expain the price increase on the imac?

Is this the one where you get a hunderd off the low end model, and 150 off the top end? If not, what exactly was the promotion? How do you know it ends on September 25?

it has to be the older model(s), but powerbook is now up for the update...hopefully soon, too

apple needs a 1 ghz laptop just for morale purposes since dell has their 1.4 ghz pentium 4 at $1299 US...that is crazy, even with a chepo-looking black plastic enclosure
