The Apple Macintosh
PowerBook G4/667 DVI (Digital Visual Interface) features a
667 MHz PowerPC 7451 (G4) processor with the AltiVec
"Velocity Engine" vector processing unit and 256k on-chip
level 2 cache (3.),
a 1.0 MB level 3 cache (DDR SDRAM)
(4.),
256 MB of PC-133 SDRAM, a 30.0 GB Ultra ATA/66 (4800 RPM)
hard drive, a slot-loading 8X/8X/8X/24X DVD/CD-RW Combo
Drive, an ATI Mobility Radeon 7500 (AGP 4X) video controller
with 32 MB of DDR SDRAM, and optional AirPort wireless
networking. The PowerBook G4 DVI series shares the same
stunning 1-inch thick Titanium case, full-size keyboard, and
lightweight power adapter as earlier PowerBook G4 models,
but adds faster PowerPC G4 processors with level 3 cache, a
higher-resolution 15.2" TFT widescreen display (1280x854), a
faster video controller with more VRAM, and a DVI port.
