- In this video we'll talk about one of the best Apple laptops of all time: The 12 inch PowerBook G4, also known as Little Al. This thing was a breakthrough in laptop design back in 2003, and its merits are still relevant today. So how does this 16 year old laptop influence modern day MacBooks? Not enough it would seem...

I think the current M1 MacBook Pro/Air is successor of 12 Inch PowerBook G4
It has great processing power, small size, great GPU (RX560/1050 class).
I am in the Barrelista coffee shop in downtown Martinez Ca. The guy across from me had a 2018 Mac Book Pro connected to an AOP monitor he bought refurbished for $168 and was typing something while reading it off the screen of the monitor.
I want to do that too when I get a newer Mac Book so I got up and asked him what the monitor was and what Mac Book he had.
I mentioned your name and he said :
" I watch all his videos. "

Apple needs to go back to its more logical power level scheme:
Lowest Power, Max Portability: Macbook Air
Medium Power, Medium Portability: Macbook
Max Power: Lower Portability: Macbook Pro
But that iPhone $$$ though
@@TwoDollarGararge but iMac Pro max configration: $$$$$$$$$
@@anotherhumanbeingblyat8935 yes they would make a lot of money on individual computers but you have to realize there are selling so many iPhones at such a high profit margin and it's making up for it also phones are the future it's only a matter of time
@@TwoDollarGararge *laughs in Apple Silicon*
@@TwoDollarGararge phones are only the future for consumers professionals will still need something like a desktop or high-end laptop
My first Laptop was the Powerbook G3 "Pismo" with 400 MHZ, followed by the Powerbook G4 Titanium 800MHZ. I also owned the 12" Powerbook and loved it. Nice to see young people like you honouring these milestones from Apple.
All these ports, the proper keyboard... damn you Apple! you got me stuck with my 2011 macbook pro.
My family has a 2011 MacBook Pro which is very useful
Still using MBP 2009 Unibody 15''. OSX Mojave, 8 RAM and 120 GB SSD. Still great machine.
why don't you put a larger ssd and upgrade the ram
@@NonsensicalSpudz can't put more, than 8 GB. And I have 500 GB HDD, I remove optical drive
@@alexandpro1 should put an ssd instead of a hdd, would be a massive boost
@@NonsensicalSpudz I have SSD at HDD place, and HDD at optical drive. System works pretty well
@@alexandpro1 ohh you just said HDD so I assumed thats all you had.
You've been producing some real quality content recently! Great video!
late 2011 13 inch Macbook pro is my first and actually still my current laptop.
i still got the exact same laptop since the beginning of 2012. great machine but in a few week i'll be replacing it with a new touch bar 13 inch, it's not the greatest laptop but i need that horsepower in that small form factor and, of course, i need final cut pro
@@giuliojpg yeah Im using it for only youtube and all the simple tasks all the heavy things is on my desktop pc. It dose feel really quick with an SSD upgrade my only problem with it is the display resolution 1280x800 looks really awful the colors and the viewing angles is ok tho. You'll never be able to come back to that res with your new 2560x1600 macbook.
I really miss the era of Steve Jobs' Apple, a time when Apple simply know what the consumers want and how to make everything perfect.
Now it’s run by accountants. No genius, no culture, no vision.
Until now, apple seems to be greater than before
@@trandinhvietdung9357 I am not saying it is not. But I do think it is too marketing-driven than creativity-driven

Very quality content.
MORE SUBSCRIBERS ARE COMING! KEEP IT UP!
The classic “one more thing....”. Love it
My first Macbook is an A1342 in 2018. With new SSD, new RAM, new battery and macOS Mojave it was a beautiful laptop for me. Sorry for my English I'm French
The first MacBook I owned was a 2006 MacBook white, just replaced it this year with the 13 non Touch Bar MacBook Pro 💻 and it’s amazing!
‘18?
I bought a MacBook Air 2017 last year and I really enjoy using it. MacOS is just so much more fun to use than Windows.
The first Apple laptop I used was also the first laptop I ever used. It was a 2006 MacBook Pro 1,1.
Mine was a new G3 Powerbook with a grayscale monitor. Yes, we've come a long way. I rocked a tangerine MacBook with the handle during grad school. I've used the gamut and now have a 2016 13" MacBook Pro and an 11" Air as backup.
Too bad I am very young. My first Apple laptop was an 11-inch mid-2015 MacBook Air.
came to this video because this reminds me of the newly launched MacBook Pro 14 inch with the m1 max ,even the design looks a bit familiar. so happy to see apple delivering a speed demon in a smaller size
My first laptop: 15" powerbook g4 from 2004... it still works! Great content, thanks.
My first Mac was a mid 2009 Mac Mini 2.66ghz. I still have this in storage in mint condition. I have since moved to the A1286 Mid 2012 MBP with 2.7Ghz CPU upgraded SSD and max'd out ram. Apples best notebook of all time. Thanks for the good videos.
My first is a PowerBook G4, my second is a 2009 Unibody white MacBook, After... a 2011 13" Macbook Pro. Now I have a 21.5 4K iMac and I really Love it.
The 13. inch M1 MacBook Pro is the replacement for this machine
Thank you for highlighting much older apple computer systems. Daily, I carry to my office a 12 inch Powerbook model which, has a 1.5 GHz PowerPC G4 processor and maxed out 1.25 GB of RAM running OS X 10.4 Tiger, to enjoy during my lunch break. Use it to access my personal E-mail, watch DVD's. watch recorded over the air TV shows, and watch you-tube videos.
I got my first MacBook about a month ago and it was because my girlfriend was getting rid of her old 13 inch MacBook pro from mid 2012 with the i5 processor. it's really nice and it lets me do Microsoft word and Microsoft excel better than my old Chromebook
I had an iBook G3 that my grandfather had had (I'm not saying they're that old, he's just surprisingly tech savvy for a guy his age). It was the first computer that I could keep in my room, although it lacked an AirPort card, so I had to use a long-boi ethernet cord for it.
Superb camera work and delivery. Great work! I had the 1.5ghz model about 10 years ago but I sold it after the hard drive died but I just picked up another one this past week. Can't wait for it to get here! Definitely my favorite PPC model ever.
My first Mac was a second hand 500mhz iBook followed by the first gen MacBook Pro. I didn't get my 12" PB until around 2008. It was pretty out dated by that point but I just loved the form factor.
My first Apple product and first laptop. 2005 PowerBook G4 12", 1.5 ghz PowerPC 7447a, 80 GB HDD, 512 MB RAM. Served me a good 6 years until I traded it for a mid 2011 MacBook Air 11" and continue using that for 9 years. I now just replacing it with a 2020 MacBook Pro 13".
Still use a mid 2012 macbook pro daily. Upgraded it with 8 Gb RAM and a 500 gb SSD. No need for a new laptop for now.
I had one, by far one my favorite laptops. I got it in 2009 and it was my first laptop. I had a 1.33GHZ model with 768 mb ram. It did everything I could need at the time and got me hooked into OSX. The keyboard is by far my favorite of any laptop I’ve used.
768mb ram in 2009 🤣 I was using 6gb in 2007
My first was an iBook G3, then I upgraded to a 15" PowerBook G4 running at 1Ghz. My current laptop is only slightly newer as it is an early 2005 15" PowerBook G4 running at 1.67 Ghz. Despite its age it still runs pro applications (albeit older versions) like a champ. I've even edited some video from my iPhone 6s on it in Final Cut 6 after transcoding to AIC. It's a good little machine for its age.
My first MacBook was a MacBook Pro 13' early 2011 i7 2.7Ghz. Still using it, never hard an issue with this machine. Replaced thermal paste last month, upgraded RAM to 16GB, 240GB ssd + 2TB hhd in the optical drive place.
The first apple laptop I ever used was a 15" aluminum powerbook but the first one I ever owned was this little powerhouse. I loved my 12 inch powerbook, it's still my favorite laptop I have ever owned.
Great review. I bought one in June of 2004 and loved it. It was very portable and I used the DVD drive to play movies and in the infancy of WiFi, it locked on and held the connections well. I used it hard for 6 years and upgraded the OS twice and hard drive to 60 GB from 40 GB if I recall. When I sold it, it did have one dead pixel in the screen.
Another computer of that era you should look for is the 20th Anniversary Mac. It was the design style and philosophy of the sleek iMacs to come.
There is a reason why new Macs can't rival the Powerbook G4 12", it's because the G4 CPU was not power hungry, was easy to cool and was very small. Any Intel and even M series CPU requires MUCH more cooling, MUCH more power and MUCH more space. These are impossible to fit properly in a 12" casing.
Bought a brand new 12” PowerBook in February 2005. It was my first Apple laptop, and possibly the best computer I’ve ever had.
The 12" PowerBook G4 was my third Mac, coming after an eMac and a white iBook G3. It was a great little travel laptop that I took backpacking Europe. Due to a motherboard failure in 2006, the 12" PowerBook was replaced with the much larger 15" MacBook Pro. The next Mac I bought was the MacBook Air (original with 80GB HDD) which I later complemented with a 2009 Mac Pro. Eventually I upgraded to a newer 13" MacBook Air and then an 11" MacBook Air, always finding appeal in a small but powerful laptop. The silent 12" MacBook (2015) came after that, which I complemented with a refurbished 5K iMac. Replaced both with a 13" MacBook Pro (touch bar) work laptop and now the 2018 quad-core i7 model (which gets noticeably louder). I much preferred the tapered design of the 12" MacBook, which felt more refined than the sharp edges of the Pro. Hopeful of a compelling option for 2020 in terms of performance, reliability, silence, and refined design.
First Mac I bought was a base model 2014 Mac mini right out of high school, still have it and use it to this day. I kept the stock 500GB hard drive and added a PCI-e NVMe drive to boot to and use the old stock HDD as bulk storage. Works surprisingly well still and doesn't have too many hiccups so long as you're patient. As for a laptop I use a 2020 13" M1 MacBook Pro. Should be viable for a long time I hope.
Your videos are just keep getting better! Thanks for the great contents!
My first Apple laptop was a second-hand iBook G4. Latched to it for three years or so before buying my first low end 13" MacBook pro. At the time, even the lowest tier of MacBook pro had decent specs, and it is expandable. After about three years, I upgraded the memory to 8 gigs and swapped the original hard drive for a new ssd drive. This computer still serves me well until now, thanks to its upgradability. Current low end models of the MacBook pro line is, apart from the reliability issues, very stingy with regard to the specs. I love macOS, but looking at the current lineup, I think my next laptop will not be a Mac.
I bought a used PowerBook G4 12" in 2006, that was my first Apple laptop, and it was awesome.
PowerBook 100. Had a 2004 PWB 12” until recently and I agree with you completely...
I loved my 12". I so wanted Apple to continue the form factor.
My dad had an SE/30 from 1988 with OS 6 and MS Word 2.0, that's how I got into the ecosystem. My first "own" mac was a Performa 6200, than a PowerPC 4400 (upgraded to a G3), then a G3 iMac DV Special Edition, a G3 iBook, a white 20 inch iMac, a white 24 inch iMac, a G4 Mac Mini, a white Core 2 Duo MacBook, a Core 2 Duo Mac Mini, an i5 Mac Mini... and now I own an upgraded i7 Mac Mini Server which I use daily together with a 2018 MacBook Air. Aside from that I've own at least 5 different Airport Base Stations, an iPod Hi-Fi, 7 iPods, 3 iPads, 6 iPhones and an Apple Watch over the years... wow, I haven't gone through that list in my mind for quite a while... really takes me back.. *nostalgic sigh*
My first MacBook was the MacBook 2,2. My first Mac was a Macintosh SE/30
MacBook pro 13 with vega 8.Thats only thing I ask.
E A one can only hope that apple switches to Ryzen mobile/ AMD for everything
E A True. Please bring graphic card option to 13 inch and get rid off Touch Bar (Not necessary waste on that bar)
i wish but i don't see it ever happening, they went for that super hot intel xeon over a threadripper, apple doesn't like amd cpus..
Michael HTT intel probably has them boxed into some weird deal too
This was my first macbook. I absolutely loved this notebook. I used that thing every single day while I was in the navy it was cheap to upgrade and never had any issues with it short of it getting slow towards the end. One of the if not the best computers I have ever oowned.I wish Apple had anything comparable. Great video! Thanks for everything you are doing! Your doing a great job keep it up!
My first Apple laptop is actually 3! I got a Pismo PowerBook G3 500, a 15" DL-DH PowerBook G4 1.67 and yes, a 1.5Ghz 12" PowerBook G4. And it is awesome. The keyboard is amazing, it boots in no time, and it still is useful to me. I was going for the 15" one, but this little Al suprised me quite a lot, and now I'm very happy to own it!
As a kid, the "17in PowerBook and the new 12" PowerBook" ad made me want a 12" PowerBook. It took me a few years and my first laptop was the 13in MBP C2D. Loved it!
I have my first Mac laptop next to me now: a 2005 G4 iBook, with the white plastic case. It runs, but it's not exactly fast, and it certainly isn't lightweight compared to new Macs, but it's surprisingly usable for a 15 year old computer.
My first Apple Laptop was a used 2nd gen Aluminum PowerBook G4 with a PPC 1GHz single-core processor that I maxed out with 1GB of RAM. Wow, did I feel on top of the world!
Wanted the black polycarbonate MacBook but was way to pricey (in Canada at least). Went and bought a horrible HP (AMD powered) laptop who died on me a year later. Got a gift card from the warranty and went ahead to buy the Mid-2010 White Unibody MacBook. My mother still use it to this day (after RAM and SSD swap upgrade) and I'm rocking my base model Mid-2013 MB Air!
The 12 inch powerbook g4 was my first tentative step into macbooks in 2015 and I instantly loved it. Before I retired in 2012 I had been an IT Infrastructure support engineer for many years working mainly on Windows servers. MacOS suddenly appeared to me to be a breath of fresh air after windows. I still have my g4 but now also have a macbook pro running big sur which is my goto device. (I'm a bit of a tech nerd, I also have an ipad pro as well ) Just love my macs. Find Luke's videos both entertaining and informative. Keep the videos coming.
I’m a little late to the party here, but I had a 12” PowerBook and absolutely loved it. None of my Macs since have ever felt the same or brought that same sense of joy… until I got my 12.9” M1 iPad Pro sporting a Brydge keyboard. Yes, it’s not runnin’ Mac OS but I can still do things on this that my ol’ 12” PowerBook could only have dreamed of.
My first was the iBook G4 together with a PowerMac G5. Those were the days, where apple cared about their costumers and their products were much much more solid and well thought out. When im talking about caring, they actually back then, sent me a new replacement 20" apple cinema display before they picked up the defective one. Now that's customer care
My first Apple laptop (and modern Mac) was that exact PowerBook G4 12" I got it when my sister upgraded to the 2008 Unibody MacBook. It got me hooked on the Mac ever since.
I've never felt a palm rest as comfortable as the one on the PowerBook G4. To me, it's the perfect laptop design. I wish something like the Thinkpad X210 mod could happen for its design.
Haven’t owned a macbook yet, but do rock a Mac mini and a 12.9 IPad Pro. Eyeing the 2019 or 2020 13’ MacBook Pro though.
My first laptop and first Mac was the mid-2005 12” iBook. Still have it and it still works just fine. Built to last!
I had a 12" Powebook G4! Whopping 867 MHz. Bought it off eBay super cheap. Bought a power adapter for it, fixed the magnetic latch, replaced the battery, and upgraded the RAM. My first Mac. Later re-sold it for more than I paid for it! I now have a 2012 15" Retina MacBook Pro. About to upgrade to a 2014 MBP.
Great timing. I'm resurrecting my Powerbook from 2006. It's still very usable actually. First Mac was an iBook from 2005.
I started to work on a G3 Power Mac from 19999, but then bought a 12" Power Book for myself in 2005. And I still love and miss it.
First Mac I ever used was the 2006 polycarbonate MacBook because my elementary school had them. First Mac I ever bought was the 2012 11" Air. I never regretted that purchase, not even today. I own a 12" PowerBook G4 just as a collectors piece and I can definitely understand why it was such an important computer for Apple.
My first and most favorite laptop was the 12" Powerbook G4. I got it in 2005 and it had a 1.5 Ghz processor at that time. I retired it officially in 2011.
Do you still have it?
No. I wish I did. @@RaysGamingChannel2003
The first Apple laptop I ever used was my firsts 2006 first gen MacBook Pro. I remember walking in the cafeteria and seeing the backlit Apple logo, went over and introduced myself. She was trying to install Peach Tree account on it through Parallels, but had a hard time. I told her to bring it following week with all discs it came with. I downloaded the Boot Camp beta, partitioned it and setup Windows XP, Office 2003 and PeachTree. She was so happy, she made me use it anytime I wanted.
In 1994, I switched from an Acer PC laptop running Windows for Workgroups 3.11 to my first Apple notebook: a PowerBook Duo 230 running Mac OS System 7.5. I had the matching DuoDock, too, which made me smile every time I put in or ejected the Duo like it was a video cassette. Overall, I found the Duo to be underpowered, with far less software available for it than a PC laptop. Even though I enjoyed eWorld, I switched back to PCs so that I could have access to the latest developments in networking as well as many more software choices.
My second Apple laptop? An Indigo iBook from 2000-that I bought just 18 months ago! After watching this video, I now want to upgrade to a PowerBook. Looking forward to more of your great content.
Nice to see you covering some retro Macs, Luke. Keep it up!
12" iBook for me, kept hold of my desktop pc until the Intel processors came along and moved to the first aluminium iMac 20"... used Windows bootcamp for 10 minutes and never went back. Not had a PC since :-D Currently running a 2016 15" MacbookPro, I love it so much.
that actually teared me up... I had this absolute champion of a laptop for nigh on a decade from 2005 until i sold it in 2015. It was basically perfection.
And with replaceable batteries hdd and ram, it was my wife's main device for over 10 years.
I still have my 12” PowerBook G4!
My first and only Mac was the mid 2010 15" Macbook Pro. Despite being plagued with literally all of the issues that model was known for, I loved it. Probably because those issues didn't affect the usability of the device for me. I used that laptop and a dedicated Windows gaming desktop until around 2016, when I switched to the Surface Pro 4 and cloud computing services. I've been on Windows ever since.
my 1st was a 2008 white macbook, 4gb ram,ssd and upgraded to capitan..then 2007 macbook pros, then 2006 mac pro 1,1 upgraded to 8cores,raid ssd,32gb ram and gtx 660, then macbook pro 2011 13" with i5 ,then imac 2011 with i3 and 8gb ssd ect...needless to say ,I Love macs! I never had any before a good friend of mine gave me that 1st white macbook, after that, i was hooked...every other mac I have is due to her kindness and friendship ..she was a schoolteacher and the school she worked at was clearing out ALL their old macs in prep for new ones..they literally were going to throw everything i got into the crusher! One day she invited me to come over to the school before they were going to be recycled...That day was like christmas! I was in a room full of macs and was told i could take as many as i wanted..my car was so full of computers that I could barely see out the windows and it was sacked out and driving like a lowrider from the weight!..I am forever grateful and have no words to express how appreciative I am to my friend ,for thinking of me and offing me that opportunity...
The 12" powerbook was my first and the last only sensible Mac powerhouse. A thiccc 12" with a proper keyboard would suffice. 12" was my first Mac and still have it and long for its portability. Also: some real quality content in this one, keep it going!
12" G4 was my second mac laptop. I miss that little guy.
First and only Macbook owned 11" C2D Macbook Air with 4GB/128GB
My first was a Mid 2012 MacBook Air. Did the job well for years, think we sold it in 2017 and got some crappy Compaq. Eventually realised the error of my ways and bought a 2012 MacBook Pro instead, then upgraded it with an SSD and 10GB RAM.
My first Mac was the 2006 PowerBook G4 12”
Xmas 2001 iBook "Dual USB" 600 MHz G3 for me. :) I did regret it though because not even a month later faster models released... I do remember being envious of the G4 iBook and PowerBooks hitting the market.. I used my 2001 iBook until 2007 when I was able to get my first by-me purchased Mac, being the the white MacBook of that year (Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz that I maxed out to 4GB RAM at some point). I again was regretting that decision because the MacBook Pros of that era were awesome in comparison, and my MacBook felt outdated super fast. I now have a 2015 15" MacBook Pro (maxed out besides storage) that I got for XMas and I'm glad I went pro this time around... Even for a 4 year old model it still does all I want, from simple media consumption, to even decent video editing performance as well... Anyway... I didn't mean to novelize my entire laptop collection, but yeah. I miss my iBook :(
My first portable Macintosh? The 12' G3 iBook! White, lovely and it still works...well once or twice per year, with Mac OS 10.4.
Started out with a PowerBook 100 (my brother’s actually) back in 1991. Then had a 165 to a 1st generation g3 clamshell. Then I apostasized for a few years when Apple first moved away from the Power PC chips. Eventually I got the dreaded last generation iBook G4 (the one with the screen problems). When I gave up on that one I then acquired the awesomeness of the last generation 12” PowerBook G4. That thing really did rock and I still have it. It’s sluggish as all get out but still a wonderful machine.
One of my favorites that Apple has ever built. I'd have to say the iBook G3 released in 1998 is my favorite. It introduced built in WiFi, had wonderful color choices and the shape was like none other
First Mac I ever owned: Mid-2009 13” MacBook Pro, 2.53 GHz Core 2 Duo.
Still use it as a general purpose computer today with maxed RAM (8GB), SSD, and recently replaced the thermal paste. Also, patched for Mojave.
Not bad for a 10 year old computer.
Early 2008 A1181 was my first (and only) MacBook. Used a few other Macs since then and owned a Late 2011 13” Pro for a little while, but so far haven’t found anything quite like my old polycarbonate. Replaced the MacBook with a ThinkPad T430 about 2 and a half years ago and haven’t looked back.
My first own MacBook was MacBook Air 2014. It was great laptop after i have switch from my Windows Acer Aspire 5742G. Much better performance, much better user experience.
I have a late 2003 12" G4 which is still working. Served me well as my primary machine for a good 4/5 years.
The 12" powerbook g4 is the most magnificent portable mac ever made - it was the stuff of dreams back in 2003. As a student back then i had to make do with a g3 ibook - but finally got hold of a 2005 12" powerbook years later - i still use it for itunes, dvd's, old power pc games & even some light productivity with photoshop & word processing sometimes - stunning little machine, i wish Apple would build a modern equivelant with all the specs mentioned in the video
The first Mac I ever used was a 2011 base model iMac when it was new at that year. The first Mac that i have owned ever, and it is still my daily laptop, is a 13” mid 2012 base model macbook pro
First Mac I ever owned was the Powerbook G4 just like in this video. I actually just gave it away to a computer company so they could use it for kids who need laptops.
12" Powerbook G4 was indeed my first Mac! And it was everything you said. I needed a (at the time) very capable machine as a musician that traveled a lot. It was actually an ebay purchase used with apple care! I need a deal.
The closest modern comparison is a Mac i just bought. After watching your videos on all the macbooks, and wanting the cheapest option, I set my sights on a 1st gen 15" Retina Macbook pro (yes, mid 2012! 🤯) I took a gamble and found a very well cared for machine with 512 SSd 16 gb ram 2.6ghz i7 and the drive has bootcamp installed aswell and came with a hard case! $475 wasnt a bad deal 😎 🤞the gpu and screen are good so far!
I remember seeing one of these in the wild for the first time back in the day - I knew I was looking at the future.
2011 13“ MacBook Pro, first Thunderbolt enabled Macbook
I’ve got a 17” one I still use to this day, the keyboard is incredible, just a joy to use. I vnc into my MacBook Pro all the time just to use the nicer keyboard
Addressing your question at the end, that was my second, my first was a g3 ‘Pismo’ model PowerBook, still runs nicely on 10.3, also an amazing model, supported dual batteries (one on each side) and either battery could be ejected and a CD (easily upgraded to DVD) writer or second hard drive could slot in in its place..
My first laptop was the 1999 iBook clamshell in orange. Still have it and it still works flawlessly. My first desktop was a Power Mac 8200.
Watching this on a mid 2009 White MacBook with a SSD and 6 gigs of Ram. Still running great!!!
My 14 inch M1 Macbook Pro is kind of the successor to this mighty 12 inch and I love it so much. It's thick, it's powerful and has a smaller body than the 15-16 inch models.
The first Mac laptop I used was an old clamshell iBook. The first Mac laptop I owned was a 1,1 MacBook. Great laptop, but i wouldn’t do heavy work on one. Great video as always man!
My first Apple laptop was a Late 2008, 17" MacBook Pro. 2.5GHz Core 2 Duo with 6GB of RAM, 1920x1200 display. I sold it in 2014 and used the money to buy a used Dell laptop and an SSD for my linux server.
My first apple laptop was my dads. He gave it to me 4 months ago. Its a base line retina macbook pro 2012. Works well
Late 2011 15" Macbook Pro was my first Mac and I'm still using it to this day, Had it since brand new. Has 8gb of ram now and a 256gb SSD.
Just watched this video again in 2023 and Apple has released 14-inch MacBook Pro with M1 / M2 Pro / Max which checked all the pro notebook criteria minus the expandability.
The first mac that I used was the iMac G3 (lime green) I used to play Nanosaur all day.
Me too 🦖
so cute!
Had one similar to these... G4 12" white... it was perfect
