Titanium PB Trade-In Question

[F. Hill]

I have an original Titanium PB, 500 MHz 15", and I am starting to think 
about taking advantage of Apple's offer to trade it in for a $700 
discount on one of the newer PowerBook 15" or 17".   I am not convinced 
it is a good offer, but I want a faster PB and a SuperDrive.   500 MHZ 
seems a bit slow now.  I also cannot decide between a PB 15" or a PB 
17".  Either way, this will not be a traveling laptop; it stays at home 
on a work desk.

Has anyone taken advantage of the trade-in offer with a success story to 
tell?   Does anything seem to be wrong with the Powerbooks available 
except that Apple want to get rid of surplus stock before introducing 
new models?   Does anyone who owns a 17" Powerbook have any negative 
feedback or postive feedback?
