[quote C(-)ris]The value of the G4 Powerbooks is going to drop like a rock once CS3 starts shipping. The only reason they hung on this long was because CS2 is dog slow on a Intel Mac.
I don't understand why everyone bags on G4 PowerBooks so bad. They're not going to drop that far as many people are predicting. There are plenty of people out there who won't shell out $1,000 to upgrade to CS3 right away. Sure, PBooks will take a hit, but I'd say no more than 10-15% initially.
And despite many people wanting to compare MacBooks to PBooks, they don't for the reasons I mentioned in my previous post - screen real estate, graphics capabilities and the ability to power a 30" display when needed.
