[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1545819, member: 56379"] Just for "laughs & giggles"...here's a "Clamshell" Powerbook G3 (vintage about 2000) that I purchased a few years ago that was "modded" by the previous owner. I didn't buy it because it was modded...I bought it because I got for $15 bucks!:) Since these iBook Clamshell's had cases that were in separate pieces (that could be disassembled)...and they came in about 6 different colors...the "mods" were swapping out different color pieces from other iBook Clamshells. Notice the dark blue handle (top of photo), light blue Apple symbol, and lime green top portion of the outer display case. Versus all of these colored pieces being the same exact color (which is how they came when new).
