Apple PowerBook 17" Laptop - M9689LL/A (January, 2005)

Great For Old School Enthusiast:

Basically this Mac is one of the first laptops that was strong enough for Mac OSX's & Pro Tools. It has a capacity of 2GBs of RAM..& has a 1.67Ghz PPC processor (Intel hadn't crept in until 2005-2006)..it's the last of it's kind..the keyboard & the backlid lights up..it uses the legendary IDE HDD..& if this was 2009..it would rival the 2010 Macbooks & the MBPs (Macbook Pros)..BUT!!?? this is 2017..so unless you're ONLY using Pro Tools 8..OR!!?? you're just surfing the internet (email, YouTube videos)..this laptop is NOT for you. unfortunately..there are no antivirus programs for Leopard OS..(they say the PPCs doesn't need antivirus software..but i don't believe that at all)..LOL..the speed is decent with the 2GB RAM Sticks..it's like Windows 7 32Bit speed..LOL..so for me, it's like going to a museum. I really had fun going to the internet with this laptop. i also have the PowerMac G4..that one takes 4GBs. Along with the lack of Anti-Virus programs, Google & everybody else has dropped support for G4 systems..so you're stuck with Leopard & Safari 5.0.6..no Chrome..(unless you d/l'd it 2 years ago)..this laptop is for people who just want to reflect on 2006..i will NOT recommend this Mac to anyone under the age of 40, or anyone who's new to computers..12 years ago, this laptop was the "say all & be all" of laptops..Bluetooth, WiFi, good speed (that's the signature of all Macs)..but now? this is just for sentimental value (a lot like an HD-DVD player)..that's all i have for now..remember..this is ONLY for using vintage software & for remembering 2006..Thank you all..Peace...& God bless..
