A Toyota Sentra huh?

Has anyone seen any cool hacks for changing the appearance of the iBook? I have seen some interesting things for the Powerbook, but none for the iBook.

I saw some painted (or something) iBooks on a Japanesse site, but there was no English translation. The one that struck me was black except for the center portion which was a neon…

Hi, I'm just wondering how big the DVD drive in the 2nd generation iMac is. Is it still the size of a laptop drive, or is it a full size drive. I'd be interested to know in case …

Laptop size.

Are they as loud as the original drives?

They are virtually silent..with an occassionl random "spin-up"..I'm trying to think if it ever makes much noise, because if it did, it's one of those things that you eventually "st…

I know this has been touched on before, but the info out there is conflicting, so I wanted to start a new topic to address it directly: I have an iMac DV (grape), and I want to re…

Thanks for the response, Timmy. I checked out xlr8yourmac, but most of their stuff seems to be on the tower Power Macs rather than iMacs. And I saw this in Misha's how-to guide on …

I put a 120 Gig Western Digital in a iMac DV SE and had no trouble at all. Noticeably zippier and when I moved to a desktop, I moved the drive with me. I'm pretty sure 120 is the …

Hi Amacapart- Thanks for the advise. I'll go ahead and drop the new drive into my friend's DV. I really appreciate the help. And yes this string was a little old, but as evide…

I just bought a 7200 rpm 160G Maxtor drive for my wife's iMac DV 400. I did this before reading that it may have a 128G ceiling. What happens if i put this drive in? will it not…
