Sure, it's inevitable that your new computer immediately becomes obsolete. But I didn't think it would happen within DAYS of buying my new powerbook. Believe it or not Apple has a policy covering just this situation and they were good enough to give some cash back even though I was a day outside the window. No chance on swapping my pb for the new 1ghz model with the new superdrive. Note to self and other future Apple purchasers: don't custom config the machine (adding memory is a custom machine) it seriously reduces your options for refunds/returns.

The url for the 1ghz model was a WebObjects session url, which has since timed out.
Try the basic page:
http://www.apple.com/powerbook/
re: cookie for storing name/email/url
After that comment it only kept the email, but left the name and url blank. I'm using Opera 6.02 on W2k.
This is fun. On a new load it has kept email and url, but not name. Difference is this time it was loaded from the main page, where last time it was loaded automatically from the comment submission. This is starting to feel like debugging perl :)
And now the whole set is there. Interesting... incremental field value retention via cookies?
Thanks for the URL, I should have known better. ":^)
Interesting comments bug, I'll have to look into it.
I heard from a friend at work that the new ones aren't actually shipping with the superdrives? So they still just burn cd's and play dvd's. It'd be interesting to hear more about this as it's the one new feature of these bad boys that's making me drool. The extra 123MHz isn't as exciting to me.
