I always knew them as Hooper. They were the last laptop project I worked on before I left Apple for my two-year stint at Sun in 1997. I returned to Apple in 1999... and had Mac OS X running on a Hooper in my office, but then I never used it other than for testing purposes and it was probably a ways pre-pre release ... that was probably fall 1999 and Mac OS X was released on March 24, 2001. ;-) > Wallstreet's were the first officially supported PowerBooks for OS > X.
