[QUOTE="D3v1L80Y, post: 181895, member: 2960"] And the iMac is still called the iMac, even with its new Intel processor. So, why would they change the name of the iBook? They changed the PowerBook because the "Power" part was originally derived from the PowerPC processor. The MacBook does not have a PowerPC in it, and since they are still selling PowerPC PowerBooks, it only made sense to change the name. [/QUOTE]
