bascially weird looking connector = Mezzanine Mezzanine= PCI slot only smaller So get a mezzanine PLUG (not socket) to plug into the mezzanine connector on your iMac (if it has o…

Would there be a way just to SLI another video card to the one I already have? (iMac gamewizard) instead of having to rip the card apart to get the plug out?

Umm, where did you get a Voodoo2 PCI?

no, i have the iMac card, but maybe I could get a voodoo2 PCI and do a SLI thing

If there is a way to get any 'ol V2 to work on the iMac you can get SLI...but you'd have to get the Obsidian 24x card. It's a dual V2 card, runs a bit more in the $$ dept., and is …

Hey Cash, you should file a suit to PowerLogix for $10 (ten bucks) for paralleling a CPU upgrade with the Frankeinsten concept.

Really. ARgh. a month ago, my computer was pimp. Lots ram, upgraded hD, voodoo2, and 333mhz. didnt have the 466 mhz upgrade though, was planning on getting one in a bit. now T…

You would simply require a [expensive] G4 ZIF socket upgrade card for this to work, oh, and be sure you have the Royal VRM, not the bad one... the VRM is this square module under/r…

Hey, don't tell me that ATI's cards don't require any extensions; they all do. Obviously for OS X, there will be some type of system level driver support and developers will build …

At the same time, though, Apple may not add support for Mez cards... sort like, "I told you so!" to developers who went against what Apple told them and made Mez cards anyway. Now…

Don't worry. Just run all your games in Classic.app, a 'classic' environment built in MacOS X that allows you to run MacOS 9.

as you said, it would not be possible to play dvd movies (no onboard mpeg decompression) but it should be able to (with the proper drivers) to read and access dvd-data. The other p…

Oops. Let's hear it for proofreading... What I meant to say was that I want to replace the HD in my *iBook* with the one in my iMac.

I don't think you'll have much luck putting a hard drive from your iMac into your iBook. First of all, you'll need a notebook hard drive. The power consumption of a desktop hard d…

...And the new huge hard drives won't fit either. As far as I know, assuming it used the same interface as the iMac (which I don't believe it does), you'd need to find a way to ge…

caslis.com/mac/ibook/ibdrive.html Go to the above URL for instructions to replace the HD in your iBook. I did it, it's not really hard, but it's a lot of work and stress (�3 hours)…

What was that company again that will do it for you and even transfer your HD data to the new drive? After seeing the picts I don't think I want to do it myself.... but at the sam…

MCE Powerbook Products will do it. Their web site is at http://store.powerbook1.com/ . If you have them do it, let us know how things work out... I've been thinking about having…

Personally, "improvising" on your iBook the way mentioned in "wibur"'s post is kind of outlandish. Maybe he didn't know the drive sizes and all... No matter. You can also order iB…

I'm just about to put a 12gig 2.5" IDE (9.5mm) drive into my Rev 1 (3 gig) iBook. I'll post back later to let you all know how it went

Ok, that has to have been the most stressful thing I have ever done in my entire life (Including total component transplants on antique synthesisers, open clock multiplier surgery …

Congratulations... You're more brave than I, and probably a lot of people on this forum...

Thanks. The only problem is, I really don't want to have to do that again, but my brother's now commenting on how cool it would be to put a 12gig drive in his iBook (and guess who …

Yes indeed, I was clueless enough to think just maybe I could put a desktop drive in a laptop. Thanks for the replies.

Just for information sake, there ARE adapters to take IDE (and even SCSI) laptop hard drives to regular cable size, for mounting in desktops, etc. They sell them at Fry's Electron…
