[RossEStern]

you know whats funny, now my ibook battery no longer works and always needs the charger

[RossEStern]

@clemsontigers95 thats what they will say about the plain white macbook in the future

[ersantosjr]

I noticed he's holding back on a lot of tech lingo for this time due to many people were not so tech savy. Crazy how times changed. (opinion btw)

[crunkycrunker]

Too bad this doesn't show the "One More Thing..." where Steve demoed Wifi for the first time. Pretty sure iBook was the first device on the market with wireless ethernet. We take it for granted today but it was a life changer when announced.

[tmac20031]

300 MHz...now that's funny.

[ExtraTerrestrials]

@tmac20031 back then it wasn't funny at all. i wanted this thing back then so bad :) it was my dream

[TechnodesBlogs]

Rest in Peace Steve Jobs you will be missed. You will never be Forgotten

[AngelTheTigress]

Rest In Peace... Steve Jobs.

[ajaxfen]

how much is it worth i have got one at home..

[Reconseal4050]

ITs bulletproof??? 4:50 I am definitely using this as a shield

[unknownsoldier23]

this is back when apple actually made unique and well designed computers at a good price. Now they use the same hardware as a PC and are overpriced pieces of junk.

[RossEStern]

@unknownsoldier23 shut up! They sure are not as low!

[StreeterTV]

It's got a handle bro

[dationnation]

All you dumb kids that are hating on this needs to understand that at this time, the Dreamcast was barely out.. so yeah, this thing was pretty ground breaking..and year from now people are gonna be making fun of your ipads and think cause of the name they were only used for women. haha!

[arma182]

4MB of Video Memory... I'm sure it can run Crysis with High settings

[lizardman3451]

its a ahhhhhh a a pointing device aaa

[Mematman15]

iBook looks like the iMac G3, just clamshelled up and made into a laptop. #LOL

[dationnation]

@Mematman15 um.... that kind of was the whole point. LOL!

[TheApple95]

8:07 he says iMac instead of iBook :D

[michaelleung1992]

02:33 : 'And it is second only to our [?] PowerBook'

What did Steve actually say at that time? Thanks in advance!

[lym3n]

300mhz lol.

[DemonTraven]

@lym3n at the time that was pretty good, nowadays you have 2.0ghz minimum in a laptop (not including netbooks/cheaper laptops)

[jokerbookshop]

i just bought a blue clamshell for $50 on ebay.

finally a laptop i can afford to lose or break.

[supermariosunshine64]

Those things are really ugly. Good thing they changed them soon after.

[chakracannon97]

I WANT A MACBOOK LIKE THIS!!!!

[DemonTraven]

@chakracannon97 they sell them verry cheap atm on ebay

[strifeknight]

No seriously guys its really beautiful, like seriously beautiful, i mean really beautiful.

[TheDirectFire]

Hahaha "the coolest thing about this.....it has a handle" I thought they had wifi

[uli711]

Steve Jobs is such a stupid ass! He thinks that all his laptops are cheap and in reach of every consumer.

[Athos523]

@uli711 at the time they were cheaper than windows machines.

[iselldummysmacks]

Man Steve Jobs was a Fatshit back in his heyday...

[reidras]

We're gonna ship iMac :) at 8:10

[bomimo1]
