Nevertheless, many people chose to purchase a Kanga to continue using their interchangeable expansion bay modules, batteries, and other peripherals from the Powerbook 190, 53 models. As a result, the Kanga has the dubious distinction of being Apple's most quickly deprecated PowerBook. The Kanga was on the market for less than 5 months, and is largely regarded as a stopgap system that allowed Apple to ship G3 PowerBooks sooner, while Apple prepared its more revolutionary PowerBook G3 Series.

It is the only G3 system that is not officially compatible with Mac OS X (though various methods not sanctioned by Apple can be used to install OS X).
This first PowerBook G3 shipped with a 250 MHz G3 processor and a 12.1" TFT SVGA LCD. The G3 made the Kanga more than twice as fast as a 3400c, and the improved graphics controller allowed it to refresh the screen 74 percent faster. Other changes to the motherboard included doubling the on-board RAM from 16 MB to 32 MB, and a faster version of the on-board Chips and Technologies graphics controller. The motherboard was upclocked from 40 MHz to 50 MHz, resulting in some incompatibility with older 3400 RAM modules. It used the same case as the 3400c, and a very similar motherboard. This model was based on the PowerBook 3400c, and was unofficially known as the PowerBook 3500. At the time of its introduction, the PowerBook G3 was advertised as the fastest notebook computer available (a title formerly held by its predecessor, the 240 MHz PPC-603ev-based PowerBook 3400c). The first Macintosh PowerBook G3, code-named "Kanga," was introduced in November 1997. 4 PowerBook G3 Bronze Keyboard (Lombard).3 PowerBook G3 Series (Wallstreet II, PDQ - "Pretty Darn Quick").
