About This iBook
The Apple iBook G4/1.2 12-Inch (Late 2004 – Opaque White), is a 12.1 inch TFT XGA active-matrix display Notebook that has 30 GB of hard drive storage, it is powered by a 1.2 GHz PowerPC 7447a (G4) processor and a 4X AGP ATI Mobility Radeon 9200 graphics with 32 MB of DDR SDRAM. It has a 8X “Combo Drive” for its standard optical drive and a single FireWire “400” port and a new hybrid A/V port that provides composite audio/video out capabilities. The variation of ports and the inclusion of a “high quality” display allowed for Apple to market the iBook as a high end personal device available to the regular consumer.
