OMG, Apple just slashed prices on PB!

[SyahM]

Wow! it's now $1499 with edu prices or $1279 for ADC price for 12" combo ... I almost bought one yesterday when the price was $1500, and now it's even cheaper. Someone, please stop/persuade me from/to buying/buy this!!!

Why would you pay that much for Peanut Butter? How much does Apple charge for jelly?

 

[notfred]

What about the iMac? I'll go look...

I already have one PC desktop and one PC notebook. Thanks but no thank, FYI, I used to sell PC notebook/desktop for living. Anyone knows why sudden price drop? Furthermore, how's the financing from Apple?

Some do, it depends on which Amex card you have.

DAMNIT I saw this thread and thought they had cut prices today, 7/10/03. I got too excited and went there only to see that they were the same price as last month One time when bumping old threads = bad

Adobe recently announced they were dropping support for Apple which is huge. My theory, Apple realizes they have to sell a lot more computers thereby creating a larger consumer base in order to not lose any more software companies and try to (possibly) get Adobe back.

 

[BaboonGuy]

oops sorry for the double post

 

[BaboonGuy]

oops sorry for the triple post

 

[BaboonGuy]

Link? Damn, that's pretty big. Adobe is not going to make any more products for the mac?

I'm not so sure Apple could survive without PhotoShop.

 

[Willoughbyva]

I thought it was just Premier that they were going to stop making for the mac. I think they said Apple was making a product for it instead.

oops, again, my bad. turns out it is only premiere and this thing called audition -- but i'm sure its just the tip of the iceberg.

 

[ViRGE]

Nah, Adobe just can't compete against FCP with Premire. They're still making a killing and then some with Photoshop, and their other apps that are already on OS X.

Wow, now PBs only cost 3x what they are worth.

They are expensive, but they are also very nice laptops. Have you ever used one?
