Tomorrow I should be the happy owner of a 14" iBook G4 1.42GHz 512MB RAM, and running 10.4.11 WITH original power supply(even though the battery is dead). Why am I so happy about this? Well... Craigslist in my area has had many scams of late with iBooks advertised as "white apple laptops" and being sold between $300-$400. I finally found the one I wanted going for $90 but don't have that money. I offered to trade my only 2 remaining items of value that I can actually afford to part with(Windows XP Home and WIndows Vista Ultimate). Even though the seller said "no" right away, I am glad that I at least sent the email because after a few months of no-shows and price-drops, the seller has offered to give me the iBook for FREE.
So...I'm going to clone the HDD on my current 12" iBook then move it to the new one, max out the RAM on the new one by taking that from my current machine as well, and then have the 14" running Leopard and reinstall Tiger on the 12"(just for kicks)
The battery is the same for both machines, right?
