Lap Cat
Every iBook comes with Mac OS X Tiger, the latest release of the world's most advanced operating system. Tiger boasts more than 200 new features, including Spotlight, the lightning-fast search tool that lets you find anything on your system as fast as you type, and Dashboard, the home to handy widgets that access timely information such as gas prices or movie listings.1 Tiger turns your iBook into a finely tuned instrument that lets you focus on the tasks at hand, whether you're syncing tunes to your iPod, creating a family photo album with iPhoto or playing the latest 3D games.
You Can Take It with You
Built-in wireless capability on every iBook G4 means you can work or play anywhere. With AirPort Extreme technology standard, the iBook can surf the Web in any Wi-Fi hot spot, from hotels to bookshops. With an AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express Base Station in your room or office, you can get online from the comfort of your couch. And the included Bluetooth 2.0+EDR module lets you connect wirelessly to a wide range of peripheral devices, from mobile phones to wireless keyboards. The iBook also offers an incredible six hours of battery life, so it keeps going as long as you do.
As the lightest all-in-one consumer notebook on the market, the 12.1-inch iBook G4 weighs in at a mere 4.9 pounds. Many textbooks weigh more than that. The iBook G4 is thin, too—a svelte 1.35 inches, to be exact—making this impressive notebook small enough to fit in a backpack and light enough to carry around all day.
Take a Scroll
Scrolling through web pages or large documents on a trackpad can challenge even the most nimble fingers. That's why every iBook G4 features a new trackpad with scrolling capability. Just drag two fingers over the trackpad to scroll vertically and horizontally or pan around any active window. Change this feature to suit your needs: Customize your trackpad settings or turn off scrolling completely via System Preferences.
Fall for iBook
Now every iBook G4 is equipped with Apple's Sudden Motion Sensor to help protect your most valuable asset: your data. The Sudden Motion Sensor senses change in axis position and accelerated movement. In the event of a drop or fall, the Sudden Motion Sensor instantly parks the hard drive heads so they won't scratch the disks on impact, lessening the risk of damage and improving your chances of retrieving valuable data. When the Sudden Motion Sensor senses your iBook G4 is once again level, it unlocks the hard drive heads automatically.
Rave-Worthy Performance
This iBook comes with a 1.33GHz PowerPC G4 processor with Velocity Engine and 512K Level 2 Cache. To maximize its speed, Apple engineers pair the G4 processor with a fast 133MHz system bus and 512MB of onboard memory to accelerate calculations and make your applications scream. And you'll be glad to hear that you can boost memory capacity to a remarkable 1.5GB of memory, giving you room to run many applications at once.
All systems come well equipped. The hard drive boasts 40GB capacity. With iBook's slot-loading Combo drives, you can watch DVDs, play music CDs, and burn your own data CDs and music CDs. Additional features include built-in Ethernet, 56K v.92 modem,2 APX, and BlueTooth support.
An Impressive Display
Both iBook models offer brilliant 1024 by 768 pixel resolution—ideal for doing everything from working on spreadsheets to displaying your movies and digital pictures in millions of colors. What's more, the iBook display scales down beautifully, again with millions of colors, for special games and applications optimized for 800 by 600 or 640 by 480 pixel resolutions. And both come powered by an ATI Radeon 9550 graphics processor with 32MB of dedicated video memory and AGP 4x support for dazzling 3D graphics that bring games to life. The adapter also supports an external display.3
