This review is from: Apple iBook G4, 1.33 GHz, 768MB RAM, 40 GB Hard Drive, Internal Combo Drive, 56k Modem (Electronics)
I’ve had a 12″ iBook G4 since 2005 and it’s still my favorite notebook for browsing the internet, writing letters, and even reading pdf’s. It’s very lightweight and I consider the screen the perfect size. It’s held up very well. One of the keys has a hairline crack and one of the rubber feet on the bottom fell off but I clean it every month or so and it still looks almost new.
My only criticism is that it gets a little warm so I keep it on top of a clipboard when holding it in my lap. No viruses, no crashes, no worries.
When netbooks started becoming popular a couple of years ago, I had to laugh because I already have a lightweight, handy netbook. In fact, I’m using it right now to write this review. Given a choice between a new Asus or Dell netbook or a used iBook G4 for the same price, I would take the G4 without thinking about it for a second.

This thing was made 5 years ago and keeps up with my brand new netbook. The battery life is amazing and it runs smooth. The only downside to this computer is the 40gb HD. But with networked and regular external drives, flash memory and such, it not that big of a deal.
All in all, this is my first mac and I love it.
