Reader feedback: 12 inch PowerBook
Im response to my article "I want a 12" PowerBook. I want one now.", Bob Eller writes in to taunt me:
You can't have my 12" powerbook! No way...get your own. I've had mine for about a month....love this little guy. I sold my 2 year old iBook the day after the 12" arrived and haven't missed it.
Bob also reminds us that, as with most Mac models, special pricing on the 12" PowerBook is to be had for government employees:
I got the 12" with a 60 gb drive, an extra 512 memory, and an airport extreme card for just a bit over $1900 from the government employee Apple store. A sweet machine this new Powerbook. Get one!!
Being a government (education) employee myself, I can attest that Apple's discounts are sometimes very generous...especially on software.
Are you basking in the aluminum glow of your new 12 inch PowerBook? Do you lust for the mighty 17 inch PowerBook? Or are you waiting for something even larger or even smaller? Do you have your heart set on the (apparently) forthcoming 15 inch Aluminum PowerBook? Share your thoughts.
