Hi folks,
I've got a 12" iBook with a 30GB drive, providing Leopard can run on PowerPC chips I'll probably be sticking with my iBook for a little while longer until the Intel switch has firmly settled down and all universal binaries are out, and also saving me spending £1000+ on a new MacBook/MacBook Pro :p
As you can imagine with only 30GB of space to put all my work, software and iTunes music on things are getting a bit tight! I've got 12GB left at the moment so I'm alright for now, but am seriously thinking of upgrading to an 80GB or above drive, depending on the price.
I've built and repaired several Windows based machines before, but never any laptops of any kind. I was looking at the iFix guide as well as the comments on here and it just seems to involve to much risk, hascel and work to upgrade the hard drive myself.
So I was wondering, where exactly would I go, offline and online, and what options do I have to go about upgrading the hard drive? ... providing I live in the UK :)
Thanks for any advice given
