i just bought my 17" powerbook a month and a half ago, and NOW they decide to release the intels, which are 4 times faster and 67% brighter!
anyone else as bummed as i am?

raises hand.
I just bought an iMac...however, I never buy 1st generation stuff so my iMac will be a good secondary machine in a years time when I start role out my world domination plan and am ready to buy top o' line Mac.

i'm kinda pissed that (and i'll prolly get my ass kicked for this) there doesn't seem to be Appleworks in Tiger. I was actually using it somewhat frequently and now i keep forgetting to bring those files to work to save in indesign.

gabe, I'm not bummed. I just bought a 15in. PowerBook and got a great deal because they were going to be rolling the new ones out. The last generation is still hot sauce.
Surprizingly my machine still lets me make pretties. It didn't stop being bueno because the new ones are out. Don't be too bummed, you still have a killer machine.

Bought the so called Brand spanking new Imac 20 inch in Novemember... I'm suprised there acttually getting away with releasing a new model so soon. I cant see that being part of a stratagy in releasing so earlly, but more of a panic situation.. whats made them release all this techonology so earlly...
I aint that bothered.. you wont see that much difference in performance unless your running some flight simulator from nasa.

might be worth seeing if apple will give you a free upgrade if you purchased so close to the release, that's what i did when they release the imac before the latest and they gave it too me (after a dozen or so phone calls)... worth a try!

Yeah, the machine you guys bought in the fall is still very neat. For web stuff, I'm not that worried about a really fast machine till I start having to do more video for it. By the time that becomes the regular job, then I'll pony up, but I may be able to charge a premium for video on the web and justify the cost of a new one in the fall.
