#Ibook on mac too small portable

Not only is the iBook an overall better machine it reflects the digital world and taste in aesthetics in 2001. Sometime soon, I may start typing my iBasics tutorials from one. Its technology reflects the latest changes for a consumer notebook, and its US$1,299 price tag finally meets the budgetary demands of consumers and education customers.ДЄpple has struck, and I predict tremendous success for that baby. It is made of plastic and rubber, but it sports an appearance similar to that of the Titanium PowerBook. A small, yet rugged and good looking portable. The new iBook is exactly what the Macintosh platform needed. Something small and cheap sounded like an excellent Mac for consumers and students. I recently wrote to preach for the potential advent of a sub-notebook product, since the original iBook/PowerBook got Apple to sell two full-fledged portables. When Apple came up with the Titanium PowerBook, I was looking at it and hoping that the iBook would become вЂњTitanium for the rest of usвЂќ in the next revision. Apple kept improving the iBook, to the point where it was increasingly tempting, but it was not what I would have chosen yet. It was cheaper than the PowerBook, but still way too much for a consumer notebook. Upon seeing the price, I had mixed feelings. When I saw the iBook, I thought that it could be made better, but if its price were low enough, it could easily be the cheap something to go kind of computer that anybody could use. When the first iBook was introduced in New York in 1999, I was in the Apple office in Montreal watching the Jobs keynote in QuickTime.

The 4.9 pound portable is an almost incredible combination of strength, small size, good looks, and technology at a good price.

2001 вЂ“ Apple has hit several home runs in the past few years, but it never did anything as fine as the latest iBook.
