1500.00? WOW!!! I didn't think it would be that much... I posted it up on craigslist for 800.00 then lowered it to 600.00 and I got no-shows.
Then I was looking at it and I'm like…

Well over $1500 $1000 for a setup like that. Snow Leopard depreciated the value somewhat (irrational people who think PPC is worthless now because it can't run Snow Leopard).

When you install Leopard on a PPC Mac, does it even install any x86 code? And vice-versa?
I know the Applications folder will have Universal apps, but what about the actual OS gut…

Oh yeah...I've wondered about the same thing myself. I remember back in the mid 1990's I used to use a program called "I Love Native!" to strip useless PowerPC code from FAT binari…

Because there is no PowerPC code in Snow Leopard? (well, not much anyway...while there's still some Universal stuff, none of the core OS code is PPC anymore)

I noticed Leopard on there and this got me thinking...
Why doesn't someone write up a script or something that will remove x86 code so as to have our own powerpc Snow Leopard?

I can't imagine the "heat gun" method (which I've tried to some success on an iBook 800 - nut need to do it again) would actually melt the solder on the BGA array, but rather sligh…

Yeah, they're really different beasts
- Faulty iBook G4 chip: about ten legs, repaired easily enough
- Faulty iBook G3 video chipset: about three hundred, inaccessible

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…

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…
