iBook Attract Loop

[K1llerEel]

I want one soooooooooooooooo bad D:

[ThisIsItChris]

Hm. i Dont like the form, some people here like it, but i love the unibody housing <3

[honam1021]

@skrbicdu I agree.

[ozy18708]

ha i like how the apple logo is upside down when the laptop is open.

[TheTechnoSauce]

Did anyone notice that, when the iBook is open, the Apple Logo is Upside down?

[cubx1979]

I love the clamshells. The Macbooks would be even better if they came in different colors.

[nestorovski555]

god this is ugly! compared to the latest macbook this is HORRIBLE! LoL :D:D

[GenoKatz4]

Where's the front facing hd camera? Or the aluminum unibody? Or os x?

[workforce520]

bring back the color

[magnuslundstrm]

Hahaha, it looks ridiculous with the logo upside down 0:18

[computertechdude1234]

Back then, I thought it really WAS a computer for 3 year olds. LOL

[SpazzFingersFB]

@technology2012 They still look like clams.

[MrNickWright]

It's ugly by the current standards of design today, but when it first came out they were hot sh*t.

[TheEpisteme]

OLPC should just collect all the old iBooks and distribute those to children instead of the XO laptops.

[anneke174]

0:33 iMac to go.

Lol

[Nikica1211]

@anneke174 Yeah i'd like 3 of those!

[edify333]

Man i like mac's i have a few of them my self. but this thing is ugly, it looks like a toilet seat lid LOL!!!!!!!!

[SpazzFingersFB]

They look like clams.

[XtutsiX]

lol I've just remembered I had one of these in mini x plastic for Barbie :D even Barbie has a Mac!

[thecompans]

im actually a hardcore windows fan, but i think these laptops would be fun to mess around with.

[tipoomaster]

Funny how the logo was upside down when you opened it. I guess they went from showing it right side up to the user, to showing it right side up to everyone behind the user in newer macs.

[AtomicProductions100]

Fail at 0:21

[HappyFoxIsHappy]

I don't care what everyone else says, I still think the Clamshell iBook's were and still are the best looking iBook's. Apple's products used to always have color to them, like the CRT iMac's, PowerMac G3's, iPod's and so on. Now only the cheap iPod's have color. The rest of Apple's products are the old and boring Black, Silver and White. =/

[hckia]

@housepetsfan888 I thought i was :D

[tigresslover]

The dark days of Apple.

[hckia]

ah clamshells, you are not missed.

[JOSEGASPAR11]

the logo is upside down because when u close it its not upside down dumb ass and for your info just cuz they didnt buy one for u doesnt mean its ugly it just means ur poor

[JOSEGASPAR11]

i foud this orange laptop in a library it was just sitting there,is it good cuz its the first apple laptop ever released very old 1999

[richardmaudsley77]

@JOSEGASPAR11 This isn't the first laptop apple made. Shut up.

[JOSEGASPAR11]

i foud this orange laptop in a library it was just sitting there,is it good cuz its the first apple laptop ever released

[helly1080]

@JOSEGASPAR11 Wrong!

[drrobertoboogie97]

This looks like a mixture of Newton eMate and iMac G3

[jakash3]

That was so fruity.

[TheAwesomeFace8D]

I'm a mac user (using snow leopard on my 2009 macbook pro) and honestly, that thing is AS UGLY AS HELL

[j2ching]

Well apple certainly has come some way

[finkmac]

This is the best-looking laptop ever.

[FRURMELLL]

Ugliest, and weirdest laptop i've ever seen, it looks like a cheap toy laptop, which it also is, actually. Every mac is a baby toy.

[VideoGamingDog]

I have this computer. It's AWESOME!

[Toreno88]

those look like toys

[jjovereats]

What we would call a "MacNetBook PowerPC3".

[CourtlandJacobSmock]

I like the way they look.

[Mabc51]

...

[Shmekekey]

I just watched this on my macbook. So funny to see how far we've come since those ugly ass things :)

[PeperoBoy]

cool I love this Ibooks and i loved this commercial *-*

[Luttenegger15234]

What are they smoking at apple thinking that this looks good?

[shockwave952]

lol, apple logo is upside down :-P

[OldTimeyJunk]

I've never seen one of these - probably cuz no-one bought one except a couple of 3 year olds and Steve Jobs

[thecompans]

haha awesome! *cough*dellisbetter*cough* .....yeah!

[Tubofluxar]

ugly ;l

[cityofrock]

ugly this ugly that....atleast they make money,stupid dickhead....that ibook is way back old school ..what the hell u expect it to like loike...dumbass people...

[MacUserG4]

Best apple laptop ever made

[TheWalkingAccident]

It looks like a Retarded / Gay clam......

[MrNickWright]

@TheWalkingAccident

Yes anything that has color is instantly gay. The grass is gay, the sky is gay. Fire is gay.

[TheVascer]

Fisher Price laptop computer :D

[flirtwd]

@TheVascer

and Apple sold millions you pc troll. If you could change out the chips on them old candy colored ibooks with an intel chip and run the latest OSX Snow you wouldn't be able to find one fucking candy colored ibook on the market.

[Ryanr75rc]

Clam that shit

[righthat2]

ugliest piece of shit I've ever seen! I did'n even cared to lol.

[pmgodfrey]

- @righthat2 -

Looks like a toilet seat cover, doesn't it...

[jamesoleruster]

I LIKE the design. Witch laptop had a design and colors like that anyways?

[TheWondermega]

i have made a ibook using a PC. i put a apple sticker on it.

[TheLolbot3000]

looks like "my first laptop"

[TheWoWBane]

i got that .... its my toilet seat

[TheWoWBane]

that is ugly.. :P

[danman94]

shipping today the apple toilet seat

[iwishiwasboarding]

ever noticed how apple hows always done everything right?

[MatthewChambers92]

@iwishiwasboarding

Tell that to 1989-1998 while Stevey was missing and Microsoft had to buy Apple shares so Apple wouldn't go bankrupt. Also Yeah Steve returned in 98 as an interim ceo so thats when this sorta thing went out.

[iwishiwasboarding]

@MatthewChambers92 i'm sorry i mean "ever notice how steve jobs has always done it right" yeah trying to be come a business powerhouse never worked too well for them.

[taylrrbby]

fugly

[hellboy0o]

so ugly

[254kenneth]

looks like a colored clam

[TheBricksterable]

They look like those silly Vtech Laptops for Toddlers.

[Frugsaddict]

Ugly

[Johnnyelguapeton]

[comptongameLA]

foookkk this is the ugliestlaptop

[mcataa]

[irulethe70s]

@mcataa you want old priotary junk

i have a macbook pro and every ibook revision(gonna sell the busted ones

[mikitymike]

they forgot gay, gayo, gayaufenhausen, chingchong gaydong,

[julesdamian1975]

@mikitymike dont worry its as 1rst name on ur passport ...

[mikitymike]

1rst name huh? I don't have a passport. Why would apple have my imaginary passport? newfag

[trevour24]

i think this laptop is designed to look like a apple

[Themaomapman]

Omg it's ugly! Hahah!

[wizeguy06]

looks more like a toilet seat lid...ugly design.

[REEV4]

way more beautyful than other laptops at the time

[lambongxyz]

I hated it at release, but I don't know - now I love it. Black & Alu gets boring slowly...

[brian9827]

@brickman409 that was the style back then

[dante13411]

@brickman409 mate... this was the first mac laptop ever made. during that time it was sci-fi magic when it launched

[brickman409]

@dante13411

no it wasnt the first portable mac came out years before this and even if it was it doesnt stop it from being ugly

wikipedia/wiki/Macintosh_Porta­ble

[dante13411]

@brickman409 what was the first portable mac?

[brickman409]

@dante13411

the macintosh "portable"

[Armaangandevia1]

@brickman409 not back in the day

[HIGHeelsx3]

the orange one was used by ell woods in legally blonde! :D

[RayTraylor16]

thats a weird computer

[yokomotopro]

i love ibook g3clamshell and im 12 so even if old fags dont like em kids do ps you can put up to 120 gig hd 512 megs of ram and 22 mb video 11 11 years ago that fucking unheard of

[TheFlyingCookies]

You're 12 but have the spelling and grammar skills of a 6 year old.

[MASTURCHEEF001]

1,111 years ago america wasnt even a country XD WOW LEARN TO TYPE.

[monreaux123]

you're such a stupid litte snot and you should learn how to spell, loser..

[Anavengertg]

Still better than a Pentium II

[mikitymike]

Proprietary plastic laptop better than a CPU? You are awarded Epic Fail Seal of Approval!

[aqualily625]

looks like those computers for little kids :/

[AlexF931]

@aqualily625 haa ha ha ha ha and might be!!!

[willman1661]

i dont like how the plastic macs with the colored part look, but i think the new brushed alluminom ones are smexy

[bigbenmadmc]

Super-Nasty-Shit. Looked like a lappy for children

[Eggyrocks1]

They were primarily marketed at the education market and were popular.

[MrNickWright]

Yeah, everything for adults should be grey so we can be at one with the monotonous aspect of our lives. Who wants color?

[GothixEmo]

I love mac, I have both a MacBook and a Windows7 Desktop on my desk. And I can safely say this is THE ugliest Laptop ever.

Am I glad they changed it to white sleekness.

:P

[Mycatisbigfoot]

back then when it came out it was col to have coulored things

[bobiolik]

This is the ugliest laptop I have ever seen in my life :O

[itspugsysean]

they are so beautiful!

[izanesmith]

Dum dum dum

[Watermelonlover07]

the music sounds soooo hippie haha

[pksmb1120]

i've always wondered why they stopped producing the color scheme on them. i thought the shape was cool too, but you really think about it, a rectangle design is more practical. even today those laptops still look nice! would be cool to have one as a collector's item.

[camtheman499videos]

they got the logo upside down on the back of them

[AppleTalker1]

iBook is the base of the MacBooks. Is really good. The ad are good.

[Chris242tt]

I have the green one and still use it today!!! love it!

[artvandelay13]

i've got nothing against apple, but ibooks are just ridiculous looking. they look like ugly little toy laptops... the new macbooks are so much nicer...

[2007excalibur2007]

Couldn't agree with you more.

[iGreenBerry]

Ya these were around 10 years ago thats why you feel that way

[nuahsx]

they do.

[Demache92]

Probably because that was almost 10 years ago. Nowadays, laptops are much more sanitized looking. I do know HP did do some of the same thing making their laptops curvy and such (though not translucent).

[iRuttyRoo99]

how come mac commercial have the macs whipping aroung, and spinning and stuff?

[PandaJack555]

its called brain control

[retepvosnul]

cause thats what they do in real life...

[Nazmus1992]

so pretty

[MsMooseMouse]

I have the blue one :)

[bubblinbrownsugar616]

I hate you!

LOLOL!! j/k.....but I'm jealous!

[MsMooseMouse]

It's gorg :) But to old to have internet :(

[vcamnowaa]

They look like clam shells lol

[musicbrain5]

I'm on a Macbook Pro right now and it's ugly as shit compared to these old iBooks! They were the best looking laptops ever.

[irulethe70s]

get one to have if yoiu like it

[AndrewsAwesome]

are you joking! I am a big time mac fanboy but these are childish. The new macbook pro's a stylish.

[ChicBookFiend]

I remember when those came out. I thought they were so cute!

[BubaBoi]

it would be awesome if apple brought back these Clamshells . Seriously , they would be way better than before .

[nekotheninja]

yeah, i mean i prefer the features of newer macbooks but i think these old ones have a better aesthetic.

[juanpablofx]

handles! haha

[wtfmyaccountbroke]

i want the orange one but i have the black one :( and it cant get on youtube!!!!!!!!!!!!

[randomfellow123321]

o dude, sychedelic

[HorusVrae]

i have a blue one too! :D

[ronijaren]

i have a blue one

[RuneFilms1256]

It looks like a clam.

[zapzupnz]

Hence the nickname, the Clamshell iBook.

[ventystrech]

hey the apple logo is upside ;D haha

[iPodTechReviewer115]

Hehe and here I am, going to get a 15.4" Pro lol, great job Apple!! Steve Jobs ftw :)

[win95sux]

Macs suck

[Mordred555]

Ignorant people suck.

[MarcusLaluke]

Ugly

[smoogleSTUNTS]

did any 1 noyice that the apple is up side down

[xcrazylilfluffyx]

lol ,

[gcahill13]

Apple noticed this when making the white ibooks and fixed the problem. still i like these laptops better than any apple laptop due to The Different look.

[Bexycool]

WAANT

ONNNNE!

(Even though i have a laptop) (:

[fai1saf3]

that lap top is 4 years old Go home kid

[Bexycool]

I Want Whatever I Want

Ok?

Leave me alone...

[MacFreaks]

Actually its 10 years old

[ManiacdudeCP]

Whoah.

I SO want one of them!

[brandon18888]

it looks like a shell XD

[somefreak90]

That's why it's known as the clamshell iBook

[brandon18888]

ohh

[Sugahunnii77]

god who has them now lol

[WindowsAndMacintosh]

Yup. In fact, the PowerBook G4 was the first to have the upside down logo, so it would be right-side-up when open or in use.

[ThisIsAdamB]

They wanted it right-side up when you carried it by the handle.

[Theowest]

Ugly!

[braydenmartindale]

Its REALLy old now if you didn't notice , but if you look at other computers made around the same time it makes this one look like heavon :P xD

[Matterboy81]

was this mac hard to get virus on too? like the others that they have now are pretty damn hard to get a virus..

[hazviz]

Lol... The only reason it's "hard to get a virus" on a Mac is because there are not many people developing viruses for a Mac since Windows has a much bigger market share. Not because a Mac is more secure.

[ipodtouchlover01]

UNIX!!!!!!

[hazviz]

I love constructive comments like that! :)

[bluenerve]

haviz I guess you dont have a mac because they are getting so much more popular. 70% of sales of 1000$ are macs. But mac has a better security system anyway

[braydenmartindale]

Vista was proven to be harder to hack into than leopard by developers , although I still prefer mac anyday regardless of the security Id still sue one if I had to buy antivirus ;P

[RatchetandClankNXTG3]

imma get this laptop for my little bro for him to use wherever he is...excellent kindergarten laptop.

[yeyel20]

this was old. but i think its kinda cute:))

[tardisomga]

since when could macs fly?

ihouse.

i fly.

[natasha102995]

I sooo want the orange one! , but i wish it had a backlight when you unplug it, lol. oh! and had a webcam. lmao xD lol, i was searching for these laptops in stores and i never found it! :L:L i had no idea these were made 10 years ago!

[ibpointless2]

Still looks better than most windows computers today.

[verhadCOOL]

OMG =O

This was 10 years ago =O

[DANZAAT]

not very nice looking laptop, guess its a 10 year old design though.
