Seriously though, if the resolution was pumped that might be cool...

And I thought I've been reading that Apple has so many of the 15" powerbooks in stock they can't even release their new ones, which are also piled high to the ceiling somewhere waiting for the old ones to disappear. Why would they need to manufacture more?

I think a lot of people are setting themselves up for a big fall. It's painfully obvious that the company's tower line needs the "oomph" from the 970 *far* more than the portables do -- the portables are still head and shoulders above their Wintel counterparts with no change in sight.
