How many of you have looked into buying a PB?
How many of you were unsuccesfull in the first attempt (none in stock)?
How many succeeded on getting one elswehere?
How many of you are on waiting list?

My impression is that most readers here have not bought a PB, but that those who tried eventually succeeded. Any other presonal experiences out there?


I was one who wanted one and was finally able to get one, due to VERY aggresive hunting (even resorting to this board for help!). I have two coworkers who are very frustrated trying to get theirs. They both ordered a day or two after launch and keep getting delayed.

An interesting side note-I purchased my powerbook retail, but the day after the launch (May 7) I ordered an extra battery online at the Apple store. Would you believe I STILL have not gotten it? It's just a battery-same for all models! Yikes!
