- iBook G4 12" 1.33Ghz, eMac 800Mhz, iPod (3G) 15Gig
Hi there,
I am new to the Mac world and this is my first post here, so please bear with me. I just picked up an iBook G4 12" 1.33Ghz (mid-2005, the newest I believe) for free! Problem is, the hinges are broken, it won't open and close properly, etc., but the LCD works fine. I'm wondering if it would be worth my time to disassemble it and buy the parts that are broken, or if I should just buy a whole new display.
If I should just buy a new display, then will any iBook G4 12" display work? Or do I need one that is from the same exact model number?
Thanks for any help!
