So, I've been fully expecting the next powerbook upgrade to be the frequently mentioned "7447b"
Every cynic on the internet tells us that its a shoein for this next powerbook... Funny thing is... I can't find a single official Freescale document about it.. I've been trying, believe you me.. Freescale's website doesn't have it listed anywhere, in any form.... So, what's the deal? Does it even exist? Now, therefore I was wondering if folks here could help me try and find these documents of dubious existence. (Note: Mods, I know there are topics about the Powerbook already, but this is not powerbook speculation, really. If you disagree, I understand.) Is anyone else as shocked as I am that this handle wasn't taken?! Come on, people! iRobot?! |

Carry on. Edit: Although I wish this hadn't happened so quickly.... I was hoping for something fresh to talk about. Oh well. Is anyone else as shocked as I am that this handle wasn't taken?! Come on, people! iRobot?! Last edited by iRobot : 2005-01-20 at 01:44. |

Yeah, if I remember correctly, they continued to report in their internal documentation that the highest clocked G4 available was 1.25 GHz even after tha 1.42 GHz G4 came out in early 2003. So the next PowerBooks will probably be 1.67 GHz... but there's always the possibility of a little more...
