Historical Context
The 'consumer iMac to go' that Jobs announced at Macworld 1999. The clamshell design was aggressively polarizing — critics mocked it, buyers purchased it by the millions. It was the first consumer laptop with built-in wireless networking (AirPort), hidden in the handle. Available in Tangerine, Blueberry, Graphite, Lime, and Indigo — the most colorful laptop lineup Apple has ever sold.
