Ok well this one was a bit confusing but the answer was actually B, AirPort wireless networking, he jumped to prove he wasn't connected to anything. If you don't believe me I posted the video from Macworld on my server and they mention that it is to demo wireless many times during the demo. I will though give points to those who said Tangerine because that was right

Gil, I suggest you knock it off. I'll close this thread if your going to start ruckus. And I don't think kpetree would be too happy about having his thread locked on account of you.

And besides Gil, there is no such rule that you can look up the answers. Obviously he would mention it if he didn't want us to. :whistling:

I don't mind if people look up the answers, some of these questions I had to look-up myself to be sure I was right and I don't think that anyone knew the exact date the last powerbook was discontinued right off the top of their head.
