Brand new Powerbook G4!!!!!!

Author	Topic
wisof Junior Member USA 257 Posts	Posted - 26 Sep 2003 : 09:21:53 One of the perks to my job is to order/receive/test out new equipment. 2 weeks ago I ordered a Powerbook g4 for an instructor here. this was before they came out with the faster ones. But something went wrong with tht order. . .Apple ended up canceling the order. . .then reordering a brand new 1.25 Ghz G4 book. . .at no extra cost! They wanted to make up for the order mistakes they made. . .they certainly did. . .I am sitting here right now looking at the "Welcome" screen!!!!!! Never received one of these before. . .it is too cool! _____________________________________________ I have a problem with vintage electronics. . .I am working on it.

I placed my order on Sept. 2nd...and then the day they came out with the new ones I got an email in the morning that said they upgraded my order to the new 12 incher for no extra cost...I get home from work and I get an email that my credit card was denied, but after 2 hours on the phone with Apple and the credit card company, I worked it out. Mine still hasn't arrived, tho (and yesterday they pushed the est. ship date back yet another week) Artillery Commander/Engineer, 68kMLA Liberated: LCII , III+, IIci, Q700, 800, and 840av, P550, 410 Contraband: Beige G3/300 MT o/c 400mhz, (2) 6100's Hotline mirror server: 68k.dyndns.org
