All About iBook G3

The new iBookG3 has been the topic of great speculation for the past month or so. The orange, green, gray and blue colors are past, now the new white iBook is in. Here the curves of the new iBook have been replaced with the rounded edges. The multiple speeds have been reduced and the new iBook runs flat at 500 MHz, regardless of the configurations.

There was a drastic reduction in the size and weight of the new Apple iBook G3. The new iBook G3 is 1.8 pounds lighter than the old one and 3/4-inches thinner. Despite a smaller size, Apple claims the new iBook G3 is twice as durable as the older one.

As with earlier iBooks, in contrast to the PowerBook G4 and current iMacs, the iBook G3 uses a tray-loading "media drive”, which can be CD, DVD, CD-RW, or a combination CD-RW/DVD drive. The new iBook has two USB ports, one more than previous models. It also supports VGA output with a special (included) adapter and two speakers for stereo sound. The "iceBook" is also the first iBook with a built-in microphone.
