People in the blogosphere are unsure why Apple has changed its naming from Powerbook to MacBook. Here’s Steve Jobs official statement:
“It’s a new name because we’re kinda done with ‘Power’ and because we want ‘Mac’ in the name of our products.”
This would imply that the MacBook name may not only replace the PowerBook but the iBook as well. Also raises some questions about the continued use of the “PowerMac” name.

Looks like MacBook domain names are going to be hot. There is already a site dedicated to selling MacBook Domain Names that even looks like the apple website. Go to: http://www.MacBookDomains.com

Perhaps they will call the PowerMac ÃœberMac ? :p
Or it would be Mac Pro
Or how about Mac Pro G6 ! as it will be the 6th generation Mac with of course the slick enclosure! I think we need to speculate on that more :>
Ok… how about a G5 style enclosure BUT! the vent holes are much more slimmer.
your turn ;)
