Grads Want to Study on EMacs, Too. News that Apple has a new toy for students has some Mac fans green with envy. How come only students get the new, cheaper Macs? By Farhad Manjoo. [Wired News]
I stumbled on the eMac by accident when I learned of the new PowerBook on one of my mailing lists. Imagine my surprise when I went to Apple's site and was greeted with an image of a totally new all-in-one design! My immediate reaction was to think that it was a hoax, and it was only when I delved further that its limitation to the (US-only?) education market became clear.
I must say I like the 17" screen, the specification and the price. If it's successful within its target market, could we possibly see a future general release?
