Nice work - hope it goes well! I have a few iBook G3 500MHz's to repair at some point - I don't know why I like the icebooks - I just do

Posting from my phone so I'll keep this simple. The iBook is back from surgery, currently in intensive care but the procedure otherwise appeared to be a success. Just need to keep …

Will probably attempt the repair today. I have 2 chances to get this right (2 logic boards) but i'd like to get it right the first time around. Although we don't have the fine tip …

My iBook has the same problem. I might be tempted to rip it open and re-solder the GPU when I have some time. I've only had it a few weeks before it failed, but during that time I…

Well... the newest iBook exhibited a system lockup due to that chip this morning. Until now it had a pretty good run, 26 hours and counting without a hitch then as soon as it power…

I have the Same iBook as well. No solder problem though.

Hey, Using hot glue to fix that little chip on iBook G4 isn't what I'd do - it'll just fail again within time and be a right royal bugger to remove (and you'll probably rip off the…

I love my ibook it is an 800mhz g3 ibook, I'd really love to have a G4 ibook to replace it, but at the price I'd find a g4 ibook in I'd probally just get an msi wind (if only they …

I am keeping one eye out for a cheap one of those. I also have the 12" iBook G3 600 and I really like it. I got it to use when traveling. But I'd like to get the G4 because, well, …

thats a very nice little book the smal form facor and almost endless battery life ( 6 hours on mine ) is what i like the most on these icebooks mine is just a G3 600 thoug…

I know, my history with iBook G4s isn't all that fantastic. In my nature though I had to try... this little machine is another victim of the "fractured solder syndrome" that plague…

ADC was doomed from the start because it powered the monitor. That means laptop users have to buy bulky extrenally-powered converter boxes and it also means yet-more auxiliary powe…

Leopard should run just fine on that card. While the Ti3200 is indeed far faster and a more capable GPU than the Rage128 card it came with, I am concerned that it may not support c…

bah any computer not running windows is a toy Click to expand... Nice mentality. Click to expand... Amen to that. comrade! In my, long and varied, experience in dealing …

The limit of ADC is the single-link DVI resolution of 1920x1200. Power isn't the limit, Apple had a 17" CRT that ran off ADC. (By the way, the power isn't being supplied over the…

It was a good idea, but it can't be in sizes larger than 22" iirc, but I absolutely love my 17" adc.

I'm not sure if they still have older Macs, but I remember a shop in Columbus called Macmobile. I had walked by the store in 2001 and there were a ton of old Macs in the window, in…

The Quadra 700 isn't a bad choice if you add an accelerator card. It's the same size as the IIcx/IIci and has the benefit of being able to be used as a minitower or as a desktop (d…
