Notes:
1. For hard drive capacity measurements, 1 GB = 1 billion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
2. Actual modem speeds lower; speed depends on connection rate and other factors.
3. Wireless Internet access requires AirPort Card, AirPort Base Station, and Internet access (fees may apply). Some ISPs are not currently compatible with AirPort, including America Online. Range may vary with site conditions.
4. Actual rates will vary.
5. 500 Mhz models outside North America have 512K backside level 2 cache at 200 Mhz.
Note: Wireless internet access requires an internet service provider (fees may apply) and AirPort (or AirPort-compatible) wireless Ethernet card and base station. Some ISPs are not compatible with AirPort. For more information, see technical document 106590. "AirPort: Requirements for Wireless Internet Access".
