PowerBook G4 (DVI)

PowerBook G4 (DVI)

Compared with the PowerBook G4 (Gigabit Ethernet), this model has a sharper 15.2-inch screen at 1280×854 and a DVI port for digital displays. It moved to 667 MHz or 800 MHz G4 processors with a 1 MB level 3 cache and ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 graphics with 32 MB. Apple also made the hinge stronger. The 800 MHz model came with an AirPort Card, which stayed an option on the 667 MHz model.
