Steppin’ it Up with the 15-inch PowerBook
The 15-inch PowerBook is packed with everything
you need, in a light and portable package, starting at only
$1999. Coming in at just 5.6 pounds with a 1.1 inch frame,
this PowerBook gives you both power and portability, in a
sleek design. The aluminum construction and standard Sudden
Motion Sensor insure your data will always be protected. The
Sensor actually senses change in axis position and accelerated
movement, then responds by immediately parking the hard drive
heads so that disks won’t be damaged on impact when it
senses a drop or fall. As soon as your PowerBook is level
again, the Motion Sensor will automatically unlock the hard
drive heads.
 The
backlit keyboard features built in light sensors that automatically
adjusts keyboard illumination and screen brightness depending
on the amount of ambient light available; making it perfect
for those times when you need to work in low-light environments.
The newly designed trackpad makes surfing even easier. Now
all you need to do is use two fingers to easily and quickly
scroll vertically and horizontally as well as pan around any
active window. You can even customize your trackpad settings.
With AirPort Extreme built right in you can
surf the web or check your email almost anywhere, with the
ability to get online at Wi-Fi hot spots in airport lounges,
hotels and bookstores across the globe. And when a wireless
hot spot isn’t available, you can take advantage of Bluetooth
technology and GRPS connectivity to check email.
Two FireWire ports come standard with the
15-inch PowerBook, giving users the ability to not only link
to available FireWire 400 peripherals but the next generation
of FireWire 800 peripherals as well. With a lithium-ion battery
providing up to 4.5 hours of battery life; you’ll have
plenty of time for all your projects.
The 15-inch PowerBook also comes packed with
plenty of features to help you get started quickly and easily.
The Mac OS x Tiger comes standard with every PowerBook, providing
200+ features including Spotlight; a tool that allows you
to obtain the information you need as quickly as you type
and DashBoard; which can help you to find everything from
movie times to stock prices.
Rounding out the 15-inch PowerBook package
is the the iLife ’05 suite, complete with applications
like iMovie HD, iTunes, GarageBand, iPhoto and iDVD. QuickBooks
for Mac New User Edition as well as a complete collection
of graphics tools such as Zinio Reader, FileMaker Pro Trial,
Art Directors Toolkit, OmniGaffle, Graphic Converter and OmniOutliner
are also included straight out of the box.
