DVD Burning Across the Line
It’s easy to warm up to the SuperDrive-equipped PowerBook G4 computers. With fast DVD burning on every system — and double-layer burning on the new 15- model— you’ll quickly discover new ways to package your data and your media. Extremely versatile, the slot-loading SuperDrive works hand-in-hand with Mac OS X, so you can burn data CDs, music CDs and DVDs — right from the desktop.
Drive in the Fast Lane
With more files — and bigger files — you need a hard drive that can handle the load. That’s why the PowerBook G4 offers 5400-rpm drives standard across the line: 80GB on the 15-inch model. Need to get at those files fast? Through the Apple Store, you can configure your new 15-inch PowerBook with a 100GB 7200-rpm internal hard drive that gives you room for huge files — and speedy access too.
Hearing Is Believing
Connect your new 15-inch PowerBook to decks, receivers, digital instruments and 5.1 surround sound systems. Thanks to built-in optical digital audio input and output, you can enjoy true noise-free, pristine sound — without ground loop interference caused by copper wiring. Of course, all PowerBook systems have built-in stereo speakers for easy listening and an integrated microphone, handy for making calls using iChat AV. A standard minijack provides audio line-input for plugging in a powered microphone, and with a headphone-out port, you can plug in headphones and listen to music, watch a movie, play games or compose a new song in complete privacy.
Portable Performance
Thanks to the PowerPC G4 processor with Velocity Engine, every PowerBook packs a tremendous punch for doing everything from numerical computations to editing video and designing show-stopping presentations. The 15-inch model boasts processor speeds of 1.67GHz.
Working with multiple RAM-hungry applications? All PowerBook G4 systems ship standard with 512MB of fast DDR memory.
Featherweight Champ
Light enough to carry around all day, the PowerBook G4 starts at just 2.1 kg (4.6 pounds). Housed in a lightweight aluminium alloy enclosure, these sleek notebooks resist stains and scratches. They’re also perfectly smooth on all surfaces, with no doors, protruding latches or levers to break, and no sharp edges to catch on your clothing.
