[ale] Replacing Powerbook hard drive

[James Sumners]

I replaced the hard drive in my PowerBook G4 Aluminum (second to last
PB revision). I used the instructions at
http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/PowerBook-G4-Al-15-Inch-1-5-1-67-BT-2-0-LR/HD-Replacement/64/8/
. They have guides for all of the other models as well. There are a
lot of steps, but it isn't that bad. Just make sure you reconnect the
touchpad ribbon, and don't disconnect it when replacing the upper
case. It will take about an hour to do.

pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it
is magnetic to the corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become
drunk on violence, a condition to which they are quickly addicted."
