Introducing the G4 iBook !!

Now why would someone get a 12-inch powerbook?  The only thing it lacks is a DVD burner, which is significant, but the low-end 12-inch powerbook doesn't have one either.  I can't see much else of a difference.

Rather unspectacular update.

I'm curious which processor the iBooks are using. Probably it's the old 7445 (PowerBooks have 7447 and 7457). Or perhaps a tuned 750gx (rather unlikely).

The info should be available in a couple of days.

Someone at another forum said it was something called "MOT" which he said was a step backward.  I have no idea what either of you are talking about though huh.gif
