Though the iBook G4's internal components have received an update, its well-built case remains the same. The sturdy, mostly white, polycarbonate case measures 11.2 inches long, 9.1 inches deep, and 1.4 inches thick; it weighs 4.9 pounds--about average for a thin-and-light. Other laptops with 12-inch displays, such as the $1,199 Dell Inspiron 700m and the Averatec 3715 (which starts at $949), weigh 4.1 pounds. We should note that the Inspiron 700m has a wide-screen display, while the iBook offers a standard-aspect display. The iBook G4's three-prong AC adapter adds another 0.8 pound to the package; a handy two-prong adapter is also included.
