The tangerine color looks much better as a glazed pastel. (At least it looked glazed on TV) The iBook in any color should be a big hit!

>Releasing the tangerine color is a subtle way of promoting the slowest selling iMac color.<

Nuh uh. I asked an Apple Rep about that, and he said focus groups were shown prototypes *in all the iMac colors* and Blue/Tangerine repeatedly got the high scores.

He also said that color matching was important to desktops because they had to fit into a given room decor. But Powerbooks, by their peripatetic nature, do not.
