Product Review
Specs:
Motorola PowerPC G4 (867 MHz), 256 MB DDR SDRAM, 40 GB, Apple MacOS X (Preinstalled), 4.6 lbs, 12.1 in TFT active matrix, EPA Energy Star
The Good:
Keyboard is superior to that of the iBook and previous G4 PowerBook; top-notch display; solid performance; built-in Bluetooth; attractive design.
The Bad:
No PC Card slot; heavy compared to some 12-inch PC notebooks; RAM expandable to only 640MB max; weak standard warranty.
The Bottom Line:
The 12-inch PowerBook G4 is the easiest Mac to carry around and serves up an excellent balance of price, features, and performance.
