Elliott Posted February 20, 2004 Share Posted February 20, 2004 well, aren't they around 900$ right now anyway? Well, in the UK, they're a bit more expensive than the $1,100 we get them for (they go for ?849 or around $1600 here). ?499 is quite a bargain over there:ninja:a: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ad345zAdZ0d9_ Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 On the PC World UK Web Site now... thanks for the heads up! Right thats the last straw, you people are not going to stop me any more... i'm selling my 2ghz P4 lintel lappy for ?500 to my friend, for this little beauty can someone tell me more about it:)) Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talizker Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 The only thing that's stopping me snapping one of these up right away is the (widespread?) Logic Board problems. Now I realise that the Apple Support Forum is not the best place to go for reasurance but it does appear to be a major issue. Don't want to spend ?500 and then have it go ###### up in a few months.... hmmmm:unsure:: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/ibook/faq/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
win2000b Posted March 13, 2004 Author Share Posted March 13, 2004 right I have some more information. 500 will be coming into pc world hopefully next week. The top 20 laptop stores will get them in store. The other couple of 100 will be sold from pc world website. They have them in stock on the website, store stock will arrive next couple of days www.pcworld.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liebe Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 if it was $900 US it would be a horrible deal. for practically the same price you can get a 800 mhz G4 ibook with twice the ram and a better video card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talizker Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 if it was $900 US it would be a horrible deal. Yes it would... but You don't get much laptop in the UK for ?499 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 you think i should get one? are they worth it Well, in comparison to your laptop I would probably say so if you actually need to carry it around. But then again, they're pretty low on specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
