iBooks take me about 40 minutes to change out the hard drive. 
But I am real careful and don't want to get in a hurry.
I have a whole set by set process to change out hard drives.

She said iBook. They are much worse than PowerBooks.

A mere mortal should allocate a LOT more than 20-30 minutes. Jeff at  
MacAuthority can do an iBook motherboard in 14 minutes, but bear in  
mind he has been inside hundreds in his career. I think the Catholic  
church must be waiting for him to die so they can start the  
canonization process due to that little miracle.
