17" On their way....

Apple ships first 17" PowerBooks
Apple today began shipping its 17" Aluminum PowerBooks to resellers, 
almost 2 weeks after its announced "February" ship date. Resellers 
report receiving shipment confirmation from Apple: "So far they only 
have shipped one unit, probably getting one unit out to each Apple 
Specialist for display purposes." Pre-production units arrived at Apple 
retail stores around the US last month, but many stores simply used it 
as a non-interactive display model (though users at some locations were 
able to explore the laptops). New 17" PowerBooks from the Apple store 
currently show 3-5 week estimated ship date, the same time-frame quoted 
to some customers in late February
