It should work, but it depends on the height of the hard disk in millimeters. I'm pretty sure that the iBook will not accept all hard disks that can fit in a Wallstreet. For example, hard disks that are 17mm thick won't probably fit in a iBook. So, that's what you have to find out. How thick is your 10 GB hard drive and depending on your model of iBook, what height it can accept. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] cargo cult programming n.: A style of (incompetent) programming dominated by ritual inclusion of code or program structures that serve no real purpose.
