[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1105566, member: 8287"] OSX on non apple hardware is against both Apples EULA and it also breaks the DCMA so that would not be a good idea. If you love OSX and Macs, fix it or get a newer Macbook or something like that. I changed my hard drive. Not because it died but because 40GB was too small for me and what I need on a notebook. I have the very last gen 12" iBook G4 though. It's now 5 years old and still works as good as the day I bought it. Just 2x the RAM and 4x the hard drive space! :D GREAT Picture Nick! WOW! That is how I did my iBook. All the screws in their own place so I could remember where they all went later. I wish I lived close to you. It would be fun to come over to your Mac house and visit sometime! :D That is the way to fix an iBook! [/QUOTE]
