On the "Choose your powerbook" page ...
Left column ...
All the way at the bottom ("High speed architecture" with a picture of the G4) ...

It says:

"The PowerBooks ships with a generous supply of memory and there’s room for even more."

*PowerBooks ships*?

Again, I'm not just saying this for the sake of finding mistakes, but this is Apple's web site - not some individual posting on a newsgroup. There are more on the same page!

Most of these don't even need a manual proof-reading - should've been caught by automated spell/grammar check.

Oh well :-)
