The iBook G3/366 (Firewire/Clamshell), features a 366 MHz PowerPC 750cx (G3) processor with a 256k "on chip" level 2 cache, 64 MB of RAM, a 10.0 GB hard drive, a 24X tray-loading CD-ROM drive, 2X AGP ATI Rage Mobility graphics with 8 MB of VRAM, and optional AirPort (802.11b) packed into a sleek handle-equipped conservative "indigo" or outlandish "key lime" case with a 12.1" TFT active matrix display (800x600 native resolution).
The iBook G3/366 (Firewire/Clamshell) is similar to the iBook G3/300 (Original/Clamshell) that it replaced, but the "Firewire" model has a single Firewire port -- as the informal name implies -- as well as a faster processor with on chip level 2 cache, a larger standard hard drive, superior video, and different color options. It also introduced a new hybrid A/V port that provides composite audio/video out capabilities.
