PowerBook G3
Bronze Keyboard / Lombard
Laptops1999Uncommon
The PowerBook G3 Bronze Keyboard — known as 'Lombard' — refined the Wallstreet in a lighter, thinner package with USB replacing the old serial and ADB ports. At 5.3 pounds, it was half a pound lighter than the Wallstreet and used a bronzed keyboard accent that gave it its nickname. The USB transition made it the first PowerBook that could connect to the accessories being built for the iMac era.
