Hi Terry!
I had my machine upgraded with an 80 gig harddrive. I had it done by
www.WegenerMedia.com [I had sent them my iBook to repair the touchpad cable I tore
trying to reseat a loose phone modem jack...and I had them install the larger drive
at the same time.] [Good prices, great people, I highly recommend them.]
OS X needs ram to run smoothly. I would recommend you install a 256 chip in your
machine. The Apple website says that is the max a Rev A will take (but that was
written back before huge ram chips). I have ordered a special low power 512 chip to
try installing in my Rev A clamshell. [I will post the results and specs after it
arrives.]
And don't forget to do your firmware update BEFORE you go to Jaguar.
I am glad I upgraded my iBook. It's a tough, sturdy machine and I just love
having OS X on it!
