Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knows what the refresh rate of the new 12" Powerbooks is on 1024 x 768, millions of colors?

Thanks.

60Hz, just like about every other LCD in existence. Unlike CRTs, LCD's don't have flicker problems due to the way they operate, so comparatively low refresh rates are not a problem.

Thanks a lot!
 
It also supports the normal gamut of refresh rates on external monitors -- it isn't limited to 60Hz when you're driving something else with it. 🙂
