Condition & Notes

iBook G3 SE (366 Mhz - early 2000) vs. iBook G3 SE (466 Mhz - late 2000).

In addition to the new features (faster processor, more storage, FireWire, etc.), the later 466 MHz version features the more opaque white plastics found on the second-generation iBook clamshells (Indigo, Key Lime, and Graphite/466).
