Hey guys,
My name is Chris and I'm new to the Mac laptop world but not to Apple products. In the past I've owned quite a few iPods, a couple iPod Touches and now have an iPad2 that I use almost all day every day.
My birthday was two days ago so I decided to upgrade to a better laptop since my current Acer Aspire 3690 needs work (new DC jack, new battery and new touchpad on top of a few other things). I was going to buy a 12" 1.07GHz iBook G4 off eBay but got my money back and my brother gave me his 15" 1.67GHz PowerBook G4 which is running 10.5.8 Leopard and has 768MB RAM. I'll be maxing out the ram to 2GB and that should be perfect for what it's going to be used for. I'm also going to clean it up a bit by removing ITunes, Safari, Firefox etc.
Any tips for me? I've been doing a lot of research and have a few apps in mind that I'm planning to install (Maintenance, TenFourFox and AppZapper).
