Apple iBook 12.1 in. Mac Notebook

The key design goal of Apple was to create a notebook computer tough enough to stand up to the occasional bumps and other unexpected mishaps of life on the go. From the standpoint of a laptop, the inside of a backpack can be a very inhospitable place. And yet you shouldn't have to walk softly just because you're carrying the most appealing notebook ever.??So, the iBook's sleek case is made out of impact-resistant polycarbonate plastic. That would ordinarily be sufficient to survive the rigors of everyday use and abuse, but that's not all. Inside, a sturdy magnesium frame provides superior strength, while reducing the iBook's weight to well below that of other full-featured PC notebooks. There is even a rubber-mounted hard disk drive for added bump tolerance, so you can store all of your digital goodies on your iBook and still enjoy peace of mind. Additionally, the iBook has no I/O doors, protruding latches or levers to break or snap off when tucking it into a backpack or briefcase.

This little laptop changed my life. It's faster than my G4/350 and soooo small and quiet, it has become my main computer. I got it refurbed from Apple and my only gripe is that I did not get the model with a DVD/CD-RW burner in it. Aside from those limitations, the 12" LCD display is even cleaner... Read full review »
