Apple iBook G4 Combodrive ... X to give you a one-two performance punch. Mac OS X features preemptive multitasking that allocates processor cycles on an as-needed basis and protected memory that keeps you up and running even if an application happens to crash.

For a laptop, the inside of a backpack presents a jarring environment filled with shifts, bounces and the occasional bump. That's why Apple engineers designed the iBook G4 from inside out to stand up to the rigors of your strenuous life. Made from ultratough polycarbonate plastic - the same high-grade material used in bulletproof glass - the iBook's sleek white case resists impact. And inside, a sturdy magnesium frame provides superior strength, while reducing the weight of the iBook G4 to well below that of other full-featured PC notebooks.

Rubber mounted and equipped with Sudden Motion Sensor technology that helps protect your data in the event of a drop or fall, the iBook's hard disk drive lets you store all of your digital goodies and still enjoy peace of mind. What's more, the iBook has no I/O doors or protruding elements - and no optical drive tray, either - to break or snap off when tucked into a backpack or briefcase.

 ... You don't have to mess about setting the machine up to work the way you want it to. You don't even need anti virus software. I have never used anti virus software in the ten years I've been using macs. This little machine has been used all over the world, even in places where temperatures have been in excess of 45 Celsius without problem. I've whacked it full of photos on some serious photo shoot expeditions, used all kinds of editing programmes including RAW photo format, Drawing programmes such as Turbo CAD and am no...more

As a new member of DooYou I thought I'd write my first review about the one piece of equipment that underpins the very reason I'm here at this site, my Apple iBook G4. Brief Specifications- Model-PowerBook 6.3 12" LCD screen PowerPC G4 (3.3) processor 640 Mb RAM, 80 Gb HDD AirPort Extreme (wireless) card CD-DVD RW optical drive. I've had this lovely little computer for over four years and although I've toyed with the idea of buying one of the new Intel based Macbooks I just don't have any reason to do so as everything I need to do is taken care of by this machine. One of the best reasons to buy a Mac is the ...

I've never owned a Mac before this little laptop. I have a windows desktop and a windows laptop but given just how pretty this little laptop is, it didn't take an awful lot of persuasion. I've never regretted that decision in the year plus since I've owned it. I'm not a hardware techie type - so I can only give you a lay-person's impression of the machine. It's a wonderful little computer! I should say that when I'm not using it for testing my work it spends most of it's time in the living room where I sit on the sofa and surf the internet. I had previously used the windows laptop for this and spent a good deal of my time getting up, rebooting ...
