- Powerbooks are already at several Price Clubs. I personally saw a stack
- of about 75 of them last Friday at the Price Club here in Dallas on Central
- Expressway. They were priced at $899 for the PB 100 4/40 *with*
- external drive.
-
- Calling the Price Club may not do you much good. When I called the
- Dallas location, I got a recording stating that they do not give merchandise
- or pricing info over the phone.
-
- I have a friend in CA who just bought the last PowerBook at the Price
- Club in Burbank. It sounds like they are selling fast in some areas...
-
- Good luck!
