but the new iBooks *do*, and are the *same*price* as when i bought mine a 
few weeks ago, but have 700MHz processors and a Radeon instead of a Rage. 
is it too naive to expect hardware companies to warn us a few weeks before 
they bring these things out? i feel almost cheated now, since i would have 
waited for the newer one before parting with one and a half grand...

cya,
