Looks like Macintouch, MacNN, O'grady all saying that WallStreet will ship May 3-6. That means we'll have about 2 months to sell these beasts. A few weeks back, I was under the impression that the new PBs weren't coming out until end of May.

PB sales was pretty low Q2,a reflection of low PB inventory and pent-up demand for the new WallStreet models. I think PowerBooks will do wonders to Q3 revenue and margin.

It's a problem when any software is discontinued on the Mac as it makes the platform less appealing. I don't use Quicken. If it were great maybe I would. But if we want to get people to switch from PC to Mac, we need to have the software they're using available to them on the Mac, or something better. I'm disturbed by Intuit's decision.
