Hardware Description

Announced in May 2001 at a special press event, the iBook (Dual USB) brought the design aesthetic of the PowerBook G4 to the consumer level. The iBook (Dual USB) was much smaller than its predecessor, and included a faster G3 processor, more RAM, VGA out, stereo speakers, and a higher resolution screen. It also was the first Mac to include a "Combo" DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive in the high-end model.
