DVD burning requires SuperDrive.
Wireless Internet access requires AirPort Card or AirPort Extreme Card, AirPort Base Station or AirPort Extreme Base Station, and Internet access (fees may apply). Some ISPs are not currently compatible with AirPort and AirPort Extreme. Range may vary with site conditions.
1GB = 1 billion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
Compatible ISP and telephone services required; fees may apply. Your ISP may not support all V.92 features. Modem will function according to V.90 standards if V.92 services are not available. Actual modem speeds lower.
Achieving data rates of 54 Mbps requires that all users have an AirPort Extreme Base Station and a computer with an AirPort Extreme Card.

Actual speed will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network, and other factors.
