andy buck | is that a yes or a no? |
jonathan rahmani | i just think this is so pretty. she's got 256mb of ram - will need to upgrade that once I get her operational. looking for a cheap low capacity HD now… |
andy buck | it's very likely that I have both ram and HD for this |
j.p. mcglinn | 500gb is like $50. If it doesn't work at least it's a reasonable size to drop in an external case. |
joshua m. haroldson | do the old G5's not make you take off the screen to change out the hdd? |
jonathan rahmani | nope the G5's have 3 screws at the bottom of the case - turn and then remove the back - much more elegant/easy/you can do this and claim to be sane. |
joshua m. haroldson | this is the second time in a year that my hard drive has gone bad on me and it really annoys me that i have to take the screen off to change it. i'm just not that brave. |
andy buck | josh, isn't it just the worst thing in the world taking off the screen? |
steve block | i am probably going to buy applecare just for this reason. although i had no real issues opening my mini there was no lcd to worry about. |
joshua m. haroldson | i've heard the newer imacs are a little easier, but the 1st gen intels require you to actually remove tape from/un-glue the screen. no thank you. i wish apple would fall out of love with their whole insanely difficult to self-service designs. |
steve block | had any luck getting it running? |
jonathan rahmani | new HDD arrives tomorrow - will update here when more is known. |
