Well, I've taken apart my entire Powerbook G4 in order to replace the DC-in board on it (which is clearly fried), and was wondering if there's any maintenance or anything I could do now that I'm in here? I don't plan on taking this back apart again for a long while once it's back together, so... now that I've got the chance, anything I should do or look for?

Check for dust and use a can of compressed air to get it out, that should make it a little more air-flow efficient, you might want to clean the drive's lens with a q-tip and rubbing alcohol, other than that, if nothing is broke, then just don't do anything.
