Description:

Apple's new iBook is a solid choice for anyone who wants an elegantly engineered notebook but does not have the budget for one of Apple's stunning PowerBooks. At only 4.9 pounds and 1.35 inches thick, with a 5-hour rated maximum battery life, this is a trim, extremely lightweight unit that offers strong overall portability. Inside the case, the feature set is solid too: a PowerPC G3 CPU running at 500 MHz, 128 MB of memory (expandable to 640 MB), 10 GB hard disk drive, 8x DVD-ROM drive, 56K modem, and 10/100 Mbps Ethernet NIC. Our only quibble is the relatively small 12.1-inch screen, a design compromise in the interests of portability. The system comes with both the classic Mac OS 9 and the slick new Mac OS X installed.
