My son's clamshell iBook has developed the annoying
problem of (occasionally) not being able to wake from
sleep.
It is an intermittent problem, probably occurring
about 1/3 to 1/2 the time. He puts the iBook to sleep

lid) and it fails to wake

It's easy to install an Airport card, extremely difficult to install a
hard drive.
Not that bad - not as easy as the Powerbooks, but certainly not a patch on
the iceBooks.

That sounds like a loose LCD cable. You could try taking it apart

If it's not the connector that's loose, you probably have a slight

This iBook does not have a PRAM battery. I think it uses a capacitor
that's good for a very short times--the time to unscrew the battery and
replace it--if you're lucky. The big battery is the only battery in it.
If the main battery is dead, you need to run it with the adapter and get

Ken,
Even if this iBook had a bad motherboard, you got a steal. Either way,
sounds like the Ion battery (Apple M7426 Li-Ion Battery Clamshell

will hold about a 5 hour charge. I am using one now that I bought on

Any flash drive should work and fit your clamshell iBook. Most, if not
