daz- Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 (edited) I want to get a laptop soon so i have been keeping my eye on the mac laptops (so secksi), and noticed several mac sites have posted rumors about a hardware update soon. nothing specific, but still a change. i think its time. its been a while since they updated the powerbooks. MacRumors MacNN AppleInsider MacNN joins the fray and provides their own confirmation that PowerBooks and iBooks will receive updates next week.According to the site, "Apple will introduce revised 12-inch PowerBooks (two models), two revised 15-inch PowerBooks, one new model of the 12" iBook, two new models of the 14" iBook, and a single high-end 17" PowerBook configuration". Limited availability is expected next week. -------------------------------------Appleinsider reports that according to reliable sources, both iBooks and PowerBooks will see upgrades next week.All in all, eight new laptop configurations are expected with two new 12" PowerBooks, two 15" PowerBooks, and a single updated 17" PowerBook (G4). Also expected are two 14" iBook and one 12" iBook revisions. While Apple is having a media event on Sunday, April 18th, the Portable updates aren't expected until Monday, April 19th, according to Appleinsider. This information is somewhat consistent with Page 2 reports of preparations for releases next week. edit: just saw the post on the front page :rofl: :whistle: here oh well ! :D Edited April 17, 2004 by daz- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
