Title: iBooks Speed Bumped, Store gets a makeover
Post by: rtgwbmsr on 23 April 2003, 05:33
The new 800 and 900 MHz (All opaque white?) iBooks:
http://www.apple.com/ibook/ (http://www.apple.com/ibook/)

The revised Apple Store
http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore/ (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore/)

I personally think the store is too cluttered, but that's just me...
And where the hell are the iPods!? I want one NOW!   (http://tongue.gif)

I know, my mom bought a powerbook last october complaining about the lack of superdrive. One month later Apple announces (http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2002/nov/06pbg4.html) that superdrives can now ship on their powerbooks. *sigh*

I just bought an iBook a few weeks ago...oh well. It's got everything the base model has now.

And what do you want Apple to do? NOT release new models so yours can be the top-of-the-line forever? Not gonna happen. I'm curious as to why we don't see this phenomenon with PC users and their computers...

Nah! I like my iBook just fine. It's just that when a new model hits the market right after you've bought yours, you feel a little frustrated, don't you? Perhaps I'm the only one who feels that way.

I think I'm gonna go buy one tomorrow.. I was saving for a 12" powerbook but I think I'm just going to get an ibook and save a few dollars.  The only thing I was kinda bumbed on is no airport extreme.
