heh. here I was looking through a maildrop catalogue of PC laptops from one of the local PC retailers. While I don't expect it to be representative of all sellers, or even of many, I found it interesting to be looking at laptops with similar features to the ibook or powerbook, and for similar prices, but with asterisks next to the cost and the weight
the subnotes at the bottom of the catalogue indicated the weight and price did not include a battery!

No, they're pretty funny. The old "I will represent an abstract idea by a shell variable" thing is old hat, though. It would have been funnier if you'd just flamed the bastard for being too wedded to the rumor sites. See, I would have said something like this:
Still using my 400 MHz G4 PowerBook & still loving it more than I ever did any of my PC laptops--no matter how fast they were.It feels so good finally being content with something.

"What did I say?"

"We're not xenophobic, because that implies fear. We're not afraid of anything. We think people who are different from us are backwards, stupid, and primitive, but we're not afraid of them."
Is that why you were all taping up your fucking windows a couple of months ago?
Fucking wanker.

Naw...That was just the folks in the midwest who believe everything the TV tells them to. After all, American Idol does the best in that market. Besides, a little microbe or two doesn't scare us Californians at all! Hell, we surf off beaches that are contaminated with medical waste. *cough cough*
Pardon me...*little bit woozy, head...spinning*...now where was I? Oh yeah, Apple laptops still kick ass. Just as long as they keep the price under that of a brand new Land Rover, I'm a fan for life! Surf's up!

Damnit.! They had to go do that a month after I bought mine.

I have been waiting for a very long time now for Apple to upgrade the 15'' PB to an AI Model with Bluetooth and Airport Extreme ...
... ;-) (I think you meant Al with a small letter L, not AI.)
The HalBook? Might be interesting

"What do us people with old powerbooks do?"
:)"
:-D
Um, use them?
"I want to finance a nice sexy 15.4" Aluminium PowerBook (coming out real soon) or a nice PowerMac PPC970 (G5?) Tower, with 64bit Panther
I also want $UNANNOUNCED_PRODUCT!

"And while I'm at it, I want a pony."
See? Much funnier.
who the hell looks at a laptop as an investment?
Actually, the PowerMac I bought in January 2000 can't possibly have dropped as much in value as the tech-stocks i sold have done since.
Somewhere in the heavens... they are waiting.
Yeah, but when your AI model Powerbook decides it wants to rule the world, then you're screwed. In fact, we're all screwed at that point.
