>Now, what about PowerBook sales? When you've got a $3000 PB reduced to $1999, it can't be good for margins.< Scott, The PB1400C/166/2G/8XCD dropped from $2999 to $1999 in anticipation of the new all-G3 lineup starting at $2500. Because AAPL gives 30 day price protection to its major vendors (which they pass along to customers), the drop was intelligent foresight. For what it's worth, I haven't seen any big price drops from the $1999 level. (BTW, this unit is a very nice box and can be G3 upgraded for about $700.) soup PS. Nice posts yourself.
