My girlfriend has an old white macbook with 1.83GHz core duo processor, 60GB HDD, 1GB ram, etc. that she's going to give to me to fix. If it were in better condition, she would probably have flogged it on ebay to help pay for a macbook pro (she does design work). But alas, the screen flickers, the battery is probably not doing very well, the superdrive does not read dvds, and the body itself has seen better days.
From the symptoms, I figure the lcd inverter needs to be replaced and the superdrive at the very least, needs to have its lens cleaned. If that doesn't fix it, an alternative will need to be found.
For not too much money, it looks like I can find a black body to replace the worn out white body. Would a black body fit on thie macbook or am I looking at a completely different generation macbook here?
The model info for the macbook is as follows:
MA254LL/A
A1181
1.83/2X256/60/COMBO:WHITE-USA

What's the list of parts you had to swap? So far, I count lower cover, upper palmrest/kb cover, clutch, lcd top cover. Oh and of course the battery.
