  whats the big deal? a mac with some more pc bits in it earning a little more for mr gates, i just dont see whats so special about it, sorry


It's pretty cool, as it's a *much* needed upgrade to the powerbook line. OSX should fly on that hardware. The top of the line ppc powerbook leaves much to be desired.

Still, i wont be buying one until rev 2 comes out, and after ive read the reviews. I wouldnt want to buy one just to find out the model has some major defect like slumping screen hinges, logic board issues, batteries that burst into flames, leakey ethernet interfaces that cause packets to spill out onto the floor and stain the carpet, etc.
