PowerBook Mana

Ah, my first laptop, a PowerBook Duo modded out the wazzu. 25MHz of pure 68040 power, a beautiful 8.5 inch color screen, 12MB of RAM, 120MB hard drive and about an hour of battery life.

 

This picture was taken with my first digital camera, the Apple Quicktake 200. It had a 9mm focal length (38mm equiv.) and two, cout 'em, two f-stops (2.2 and 8) and a whoping 0.3 megapixel CCD.

 

But, with the right conditions it could take excelent picture, in this picture's case, 2000 watts of studio lighting. But for all it's failings, it had one advantage that could never be beat (until I just recently got my Rebel XT) instant on. You fliped the power switch, and it was on. No boot time, no waiting for the lens to extend from the body, it was ready to go.
