Re: Not a PowerBook after all...?

It's hard to say, Apple did a good job over the last year of falling completely out of their upgrade cycle in several lines. The iMac G5 has remained the same since September when it was released. Typically apple revamps each series every 6 months or so, so March-April would be a good guess, but you can't really say for sure since so many lines lately have fallen out of the normal routine. I think the only line that is still on it's normal routine for revamping is the iBook, but, of course, that could change come this spring. If you want one, keep an eye on www.macrumors.com and I wouldn't wait any longer than a month or month and a half if you absolutely need the most up to date version. Brian

Hi!

I have been doing some serious thinking and have realised
that maybe a PowerBook isn't what I really need, but a slightly
more powerfull, but semi-moveable computer, and when I
read on Apple's site that the iMac G5 is even sold as a moveable
machine, I figured that maybe I should consider this instead.

Well, I am pretty much decided, half the price, G5 instead
of G4, 1440 over 1280 is enough to sell it to me.

However, the PowerBook range was recently updated with
speeds and specs going up, and prices going down, but as
I haven't taken much notice of the iMac, I presume we're
still buying rev.1 machines...

Any rumours, or typical timing of an update ?
