Apple iBook G4 Superdrive ... WLAN : 802.11b/g, Bluetooth - MacOS X 10.4 - 12.1" TFT 1024 x 768 ( XGA ) (pack of 15 ) / The iBook's PowerPC G4 processor works hand in hand with Mac OS 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. Enhancing the performance of the PowerPC G4 is its aptly named Velocity Engine. The Velocity Engine processes data in huge 128-bit chunks, instead of the smaller 32-bit or 64-bit chunks, and can perform complex calculations two to four times faster than run-of-the-mill PCs.

 ... excellent. I did have to download a word-style package which wasn't included in order to write essays but even this piece of software was easier to use than the microsoft ones. I think probably because there is enough functionality without having too much that you don't understand and can confuse and slow down a document. There is a dashboard feature which is a bit like a windows desktop but much better because you can have clocks and online features called widgets.

Premium Review Apple iBook G4 Superdrive: iBook G4 still has it! (299 words)

If you haven't used an Apple before, it will take a little while to get used to, because you will have become so used to the way microsoft packages work. It is well worth the effort to learn how to navigate an Apple though. I was very impressed with the speed of this computer. Everything works extremely quickly. Also the applications are excellent.

Premium Review iLove the iBook (176 words)

ive owned one of these for about a year now. Being a windows user before i was kind of wary of converting to mac as i was so used to using the interface which everyone prefers. After using this for about a week i kind of though of it as a large ipod, all the features of Mac are ipod like (well they are apple) but i just have come to love the interface, its so easy to use. Once you use a mac i believe it will be hard for you to go back to a pc. Macs are so fast and reliable. This ibook is just under 5 years old and it still runs like a charm even after having a lot of applications piled onto it such as photoshop CS3 which is handles great (if a little lagy at some times) ...  Read the complete review
