I couldn't believe it. I had heard that it would be a month before they started that.

How is the [FONT=Verdana]trackbad button[/FONT] on your new powerbook ? The earlier 1.67 powerbooks had a really mushy trackpad button which did not have a satisfying click compored to say an ibook.

It's not as clicky as the ibook, but I think it's better than the 1.5ghz 17" that I had. Pretty firm.
