PPC 970 Powerbooks and Powermacs in Production?

Thadddius_Brinks writes "MacWispers.com is reporting here that apple is currently in production of a redesigned single processor PowerPC 970 Powermac system and a 15.4 inch Powerbook. They (MacWhispers.com) are also standing by their earlier claims about the speed of the new processor." This article consolidates many of the major rumors surrounding WWDC including the rumor of a new case for the Powermacs, but it raises the ultimate question: 17" Powerbook, or PPC 970 Powerbook?

    apple is offering sweet $300 dollar rebates to students, and they have just dropped the price on many models like the powerbook. might be a good time to jump on one.

    or avoid these products like the plague : usually, when companies do big rebates and drop price, it's because they're desperate for cash.

    " Attention moderators! "Alan Partridge" is a known troll"

    Known to whom, exactly?

    Mod me down by all means, but it's easier to do so if the post is shit, rather than because some tosser AC told you to do so.

    My posting on Slashdot is trivial enough, but to actually concern yourself with what I post is just fucking sad.
