My new powerbook is obsolete
... and it has been rendered obsolete by this: its brother. Less than 3 months after releasing the new powerbooks, Jobs just announced the intel-duo based MacBooks. It's great. The specs are really impressive. But I just freaking bought a new one 3 months ago and now I'm off sync!!!
Within others, new specs include:
- 15.4-inch widescreen display
- 1.67 or 1.83GHz Intel Core Duo
- 667MHz frontside bus and main memory
