Apple 17-inch PowerBook G4

Apple's taking a much more low-key approach to 2003, choosing to overhaul its flagship laptop in lieu of launching a bold new product with a huge media blitz like they did in years past with the iMac and the iPod. The news from Apple this year is the company's new 17-inch Powerbook laptop. That's right -- a laptop with a 17-inch LCD screen, the largest of any laptop to date and bigger than most of the separate flat-panel monitors currently on desktops. The 17-inch PowerBook G4 will be available in February 2003 for $3299. www.apple.com
