[QUOTE="lzasitko, post: 22589"] [b]iBook[/b] Go get as much memory as you can, I put 512 in mine and it really does help. I landed up buying mine at one of the Apple dealers (Westworld) in Calgary. I checked all over and found that they were only $10 more than the stores that sell only memory. They installed it and tested it for nothing. Yes you can change the hard drive but you have to take it all apart, not an easy task. Others have done it and I will likely do it at some point but may just leave the 6gig alone and get a usb/firewire, some of those are really small. Upgrade the OS to Panther. I have Jaguar and 9.2 on mine and Panther is on it's way. I have not had any problems with Jaguar and I gather that Panther is faster then Jaguar. You will like OSX. No you can't put in a superdrive, hardware does not support it. Apple only put in dvd/cd drives. Again you could leave the existing alone and get an external drive. Larry [/QUOTE]
