“Apple Computer refreshed its line of eMac computers on Tuesday, upgrading their processing power and graphics performance, and offering a new low-end model.
Apple also added support for 802.11g wireless, or what the company calls AirPort Extreme. The “g” class transfers data at 54 megabits per second–fast enough to move video over the air–compared with 802.11b’s maximum transfer rate of 11mbps.
The revamped eMacs mark Apple’s second move of an entire product line to AirPort Extreme. New Power Macs launched in late January also support AirPort Extreme across the line. Apple debuted the technology in January on new PowerBooks and added it to flat-panel iMacs in February, but the faster wireless is not available on all models.” [News.com]
