Yes, they're rather small aren't they and I can only wonder how much
thinner the new Macbook could possibly be.
As I understand it, the Ibook comes standard with 512 Meg of memory
which can be expanded by a further gig by putting a memory chip into
the memory slot benief the keyboard, full instructions on installing
additional memory are clearly outlined in the Ibook users guide which
comes with the Ibook and is also available on-line at Apple's web
site which leads me to another nice point about OS10, that Preview
application really makes PDF documents so accessible, far more
accessible than I've ever found them to be under Windows and Adobe
acrobat but I don't want to brag <smile>.
Another nice surprise I got with the Ibook is the amazing sound out
of the very small in-built speakers, its not all that loud but sounds
fine and of course, you can plug external speakers in if you want to.

Hi Will. I have a student who I just finished with who is using the

you mension. It's really fine. I did find sometimes I got a busy

but nothing crippling. I think the IBook actually is a nice
machine and you
t=won't have any problems. My student uses Internet, Mail, Text
edit for
small papers and IChat and really enjoys using the Mac. Okay! she
is 10
years old and thinks it's cool that she has a laptop and can go
anyware with
it. I would suggest that if you have the opportunity put as much
memmory as
you can in the thinkg. It will run on 256 but 512 certainly helps
move
thinkgs along a bit. Enjoy the machine.

hi
Does anyone use the IBook g4 1.2 GHZ machine with Tiger 10.4 or
higher?
I know it is not the fastest machine but does it still perform well?
regards, will
