more...everything from Microsoft Office to Final Cut Pro to Adobe Photoshop. It also connects to just about anything, from wireless networks to digital cameras to the stunning Apple Cinema Display. Truly a study in contrasts, the PowerBook G4 gives you a gorgeous 15.2-inch mega-wide screen and up to 5 hours of battery life in an unrivaled 1-inch-thin titanium design that weighs as little as 5.4 pounds. With a PowerPC G4 processor with Velocity Engine running at up to 1GHz - and 1MB of L3 cache for an extra performance boost - the PowerBook G4 is a truly powerful and portable computer. For superior performance in graphic design work, DVD movie playback, and 3D gaming, the PowerBook G4 features the ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 graphics processor with up to 64MB of DDR SDRAM. Complementing this performance platform is Mac OS X - a supermodern operating system that combines the power and stability of UNIX with the elegance of Macintosh. Such incredible power deserves equally impressive display capabilities. The PowerBook G4 features a 15.2-inch mega-wide screen with 1280-by-854-pixel resolution, which gives you the largest workspace, best color saturation, and widest viewing angle ever in a PowerBook. Compared with 15-inch XGA screens, you get 39 percent more workspace. If you need to increase your workspace even more or deliver a presentation, the PowerBook G4 features DVI, VGA, S-video, and composite output options for connectivity to flat-panel displays, CRTs, TVs, and projectors. And for the first time ever, you can have the ultimate pure digital experience and even more workspace by connecting your PowerBook to an Apple flat-panel display. When it comes to networking, the PowerBook G4 has you covered. With an AirPort Card, you're ready to connect to a wireless network at work, at home, or in a cafe. If you're looking for a high-speed connection via Ethernet, DSL, or cable modem, just plug into the Gigabit Ethernet port. Of course, there's a built-in 56K modem as well. You can also use Bluetooth wireless technology to link Bluetooth-enabled PDAs, cell phones, and other peripherals to your PowerBook G4. The PowerBook G4 provides multiple ways for you to express your creativity. With the slotloading Combo drive (DVD-ROM/CD-RW) or SuperDrive (DVD-R/CD-RW), you can burn CDs, burn DVDs, watch DVD movies, or listen to music CDs.

This laptop is one of a kind at 1 inch thick, damn apple have made a good job of it too. This dream machine comes in two different ways, one with 400 mhz and the other with 500mhz, there's one problem though the 500 mhz laptop is alot more than the 400 mhz, about £600 difference.The machine comes at quite a hefty price being around £1900, but prices may depend on the shop, the 500 mhz is around £2500 but has a bigger disk drive and more memory.The Titanium powerbook G4 can play DVD's at great quality on a sceen just a centimetre thick!
