I'm sure the Portable is a review model. Such stickers were common for
hardware sent out to magaziner reviewers, analysts, key customers, etc.
prior to it becoming commercially available.
This system might be identical to a commercial model, but it's just as
possible there will be minor differences.

Subject: Prerelease Mac Portable?
I noticed this on ebay tonight:

Seller thinks it may be a prerelease model because the FCC sticker says
it isn't approved and can't be sold. Possibly they are correct, maybe it
was a review model sent out before they hit the stores.
I'd love to have it, opening bid of $9.99, but I'm sure it will go above
my price range before it closes (and now that I've pointed it out here,
that's almost a sure event).
