G4 Sawtooth — #7

I got my "body double" AGP G4/450 for $30. I think prices are already dropping like rocks on lowend G4s.

iBook G4 — #8

I've found that if you're careful enough, a flat head screw driver works fine for popping the case off. No marks either.

64MB EDO RAM in a Color Classic II/ LC550 — #9

G4 MDD won't boot up - CPU fried? — #6
