Hi, Why don't you juts upgrade the iBook hard disc? Done it myself, quite easy juts takes a hour or so. You need a 2.5 IDE hard disc, anyone will do (eg PC), in terms of cost a fast 40GB can be had for �78 pounds. For guides in how to, try the FAQ of <http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/> and the drive database. The best place for price to buy is <http://www.ebuyer.com/> If you need any more help just email me back.
