[edit] First paragraph plagiarized from Low End Mac?

The first paragraph appears to be largely plagiarized from the Low End Mac web pages documenting the 500 series. See PowerBook 520c. In addition, all over the internet, there is mention that the PowerBook 500 series was the first computer to use PCMCIA. This is simply not true. The PowerBook 500 series came out on May 16, 1994. According to a COMPUTE! article from May 1993 [1], there were computers already out that used PCMCIA slots. I'm going to re-edit the page to fix both.

There should be some mention of the 550C not being released in the US, in this article.
