Sounds like the new one if it has a 120gb hard disk.

Check Display in Sys Prefs.

Does it read 1680x1050.

If so, you got the new one :flower:

oh okay...then I guess you may have gotten a new one. Congrats!

Yeah freakin' sweet getting a laptop with a 120gig hard disk and the WSXGA+ resolution. To die for on a portable!!

What a sweet machine that is!! Still love my 12inch PowerBook. Might have to get one of those new batteries. 5.5hr battery life! *BLINKS* :flower:

You are a lucky dude. That's good timing.

if i had known that thay where going to be upgraded i would av waited but as u said it was good timing

That screen res really makes that PowerBook sound wonderful, **** you wouldn't even need to have the cinema display plugged into it for that kind of resolution.

That said, I am glad the 23" Cinema Display dropped in price as that's what I want for my 12" PB; though, if I had your 17" with 1680x1050 - I'd not need it!

I love my old pb too. Although, the longer battery life on the new ones makes me want to go out and buy one right now. If it wasn't for my bank account being cashtrated, I would.

5.5 hrs on a pb. is unheard of.....someone test that spec out!! Getting fidgety...

Not sure if it's logic board changes or higher watt-hr rated battery... I'll try and find out. If so, I'm getting one for my PB. That'd give me realistically speaking 9 1/2hrs away from AC run time. Excellent!

i will find out if the battery lasts 5.5 hours and get back to you

To get the quoted 4hrs out of my 12" PB, I need airport and bluetooth off, battery performance selected and screen on its dimmest setting.

That's just for reference! Bear in mind it was also powering my USB ADSL modem when I did that measurement.
