Re: Ibook DVD question
I took a dead 900 Mhz 14 down to the skeleton to part it out. There were a lot of screws and a full muffin tin in the end but I've got to say I've done PC's that were more of a problem.

Ibook DVD question
I just got a combo drive from a friends newer Ibook that died and I'd like to install it in my Ibook. I have an earlier model 500 MHz Dual USB and was wondering,. did all of them have the DVD decoder on the motherboard, or just the DVD drive equipped models.
