acidic-e- Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 Yeah I was playing on a G5 at fry's today when I got my new printer. I spent 45 minutes playing on the thing. It had the side case off so you could look inside (but it still had the clear plastic on) All I can say is I was just inlove playing around with it on a 23inch HD display. I'm gonna have to buy one. I like windows and all but man OS X is just flat out beautiful as is that G5 case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Dorr Veteran Posted February 5, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 5, 2004 No, Apple prices things regionally. Personally, I'd save the money at get the refurb version: PowerBook G4 1GHz/512MB/60GB/SuperDrive/AP Extreme Card/GigE/56K/17"TFT - Refurbished $2,199.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VGVL Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 You have to take into account import taxes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt74441 Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 Well anyways, congrats Solarix on an excellent buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the evn show Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 Student pricing starts the notebook at $3,800. Developer discount is even more. For what it's worth I paid $4,800 for my 15" TiBook about 18 months ago. $4300 cdn is a bargain! Also, buying the ram 3rd party saves you a fortune. You can pick up 512mb sticks of micron ram for your powerbook for $190cdn (and that was just at the nearest store - you can probably find better). That cuts $200 of the price if you wanted 1gb.

Max Veteran Posted February 5, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 5, 2004 *Sigh* Using that converter, with English prices that PowerBook will cost 4,405.57 USD or 5,878.16 CAD. TAX Sucks in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
