Also as a personal touch for my mommy I modded the glowing apple and made it pink! Looks pretty awesome. Tiger runs on this thing like a champ. Looks brand new now except for 2 …

2 things have kept me from using retro bright 1) the specialty H202 2) the splotchy outcome on some projects #2 can be dealt with by keeping on top of things and using a less st…

For the skeptics and hold-outs... CAN RETROBRIGHT REALLY MAKE PLASTICS BRITTLE? Let's think about it logically. How can cleaning the surface (0.1mm worth?) of a piece of plastic…

I like the T-shirt it is the one from the Apple T-shirts book "Why do people love Macintosh?" "Just ask!" 

Congrats on the iBook! Hope yours fairs better than mine did...mine was plagued with problems since the start, and it finally failed a few months ago with the infamous GPU issue.

I used to have a 1.33GHZ iBook, that was a champ and served me awesomley. Great laptops!

I am still worried about whether this method will make the plastics brittle, or has some other long-term consequence which no one knows about yet. When it's been 2-3 years with no …

I've got a partially restored Quadra 700. It came with nothing, no RAM, floppy drive, hard drive, or even internal device cables. It now has all the internal devices, maximum RAM…

I also fixed the KeyBoard by using keys from an old iBook G3 Keyboard. It is now like a hybrid clear and solid keyboard. Very cool. Kinda like Coius's PowerBook Bronze keyboard mod…

The TiBook will be my secondary Laptop, in case my MSI Wind Fails. Also may be my video editing machine if it is 867MHZ or higher. Don't know what model it is.

Lucky! Those are one of the most reliable of iBooks. What are your plans for the TiG4 when you get that?

Oh thats cool! I am shipping two RAM Doublers if our PowerBook 150 deal works out.
