Tonight we purchased a Powerbook and a 20GB iPod. The 20GB iPod was
eligible for the $200 rebate from Apple (educational). Suzanne and I
really debated whether or not to get the Powerbook.
While we are at the Apple store about ready to purchase the Powerbook
Suzanne asked Reia if she was excited and Reia let out a squeal. It
was pretty funny and Suzanne turned a nice shade of red.
Now it is a waiting game. I am going to wait until next week to see
if Apple announces new Powerbooks at the expo next week. There is a
slight chance if Apple reduces the Powerbook prices (or if they stay
the same), Apple will do an appeasement on the older powerbooks.

I am new to the Apple scene. I have been a pretty heavy Linux user in
the last couple of years. For the past 3 months (since my daughter
was born), I have been considering getting a Powerbook from Apple.
The problem is there have been rumors of new Powerbooks coming, but
they haven't yet made it. There is also a special offer from Apple if
you buy a Powerbook and iPod, you get a $200 rebate (educational).
Today, Apple introduced new iPods that are not eligible for the
rebate. They have larger storage capacity. I am expecting the new
Powerbooks to be introduced next week at the Mac Expo, but they
probably won't qualify either. Do I go with the newest stuff or take
the rebate and go with the older?
humm....
