Frankenstein iBook G3
Possibly the derp-iest question ever (please be kind) 😊, but I'm trying to salvage the innards of a motherboard-dead MBP 17" (2009).
Is it possible to put the MBP's HD & RAM into its still-functioning sibling, an iBook G3? (or clamshell iBook?) I have a collection of outdated or non-functioning notebooks that could supplement my Air. The memory & space hogs on my machines are always photos & tunes (ripped CDs & iTunes).
- Possible?
- What are the limits? (ports are the first to come to mind)
- What to watch for?
- How to do it?
I'd love to learn by DIY, but this isn't a project I should learn by doing since the MBP HD has files I wouldn't trust to clumsy me w/a screwdriver.
Thanks very much for reading & entertaining my wackadoodle idea.
