Hey guys, there are shops here in Japan that will remove your iBook or TiBook hard drive, adn replace it with another drive. So, for example I could send in my G3 iBook with a puny 20gig HD and have it sent back with a 80gig drive in it! Nice! The Apple store doesn't do this though. Is...

My iBook G3/500 (10.3.4) isn't recognizing my internal mic. I was trying to tinker with the new voice notes feature in Office 2004 when I realized that the "device" field was greyed out. I naturally went into the Sound pane in System Prefs to investigate, only to find that it read "No input...

I've looked around and can't seem to find any vendor offering a replacement internal AirPort card for TiBooks. It seems if I want to use 802.11g instead of the built-in 802.11b, I need to use the CardBus (PC Card) slot. Doesn't someone make a card to replace the internal AirPort? I thought...

Righty-ho! This should be a doddle for you clever lot! I'm thinking of replacing the hard drive in my aging iMac G3 500. Can I buy any ATA, which is physically the same size as the existing one? If so, is it as simple as switching the drives, starting the machine from OS X CD and then...
