iBook G4 is even more indestructible than cockroaches!

 

My iBook has been through hell! I was in a car accident and it became very airborne and slammed into the floorboard of my car. The laptop was fine, the car, unfortunately was not (RIP, my love!) I've stepped on this computer at least ...

Extremely resilient, sleek and attractive, perfect for students, hip, white matches anything

if you step on the a/c power adapter, it might break like mine did

Great Machine, could be faster

 

I have used my ibook for a little over two years now. Always reliable, could be faster. Takes a while to boot up and shut down, for example. Otherwise I run several apps at a time on this machine with no problem. Nice comfortable keyboard and ...

Great display, handles multiple apps at once, user friendly.

Slowish boot up and shut down, speakers could be louder, runs a little hot.

Sad and Disappointed

 

I got my iBook G4 for Christmas a few years ago. I was so happy with it until the warranty period ran out. About 10 seconds out of warranty my logic board crapped out. Mac recognized this problem on the G3 series and had an extended replacement ...

Macs are the coolest computers on the planet. So many great programs!

It had a huge problem about 10 seconds out of warranty. Mac didn't care :-(

Runs good, no viruses

Model A1054 - G4 Ibook! An excellent, powerful entry level laptop!

 

The 1.07 GHz - 768 MG DRAM G4 Ibook (A 1054) is simply fantastic! I'm a graphic artist and thought I would have some limitations with regards to running some of the really ram-intensive digital imaging programs like Photoshop and Tiger, but this Mac ...

Durable with good power in a compact size! Great screen quality! It's a Mac!

Can be expensive! Save by purchasing used online. Watch for Logic Board issues...
