Digidesign discontinued the 001 (rackmount with PCI card, meaning
almost impossible/at best highly impractical to use with a Powerbook
laptop) and has now replaced the 001 with the 002 Rackmount version (using
Firewire instead of needing a PCI card) at the same retail cost they
previously sold the 001 for. If you don't mind the PCI card, here's a lot
of 001s on ebay, cheaper than they used to be.
