Well I didn’t end up schlepping to the VCF east swap meet, but I made up for it by grabbing this G4 iMac nearby for $50. Got it from the original owner, and it fired right up.
I spent WAY too long cleaning up the keyboard, but it turned out great.

Bought an #SSD Upgrade to the #Powerbook G4 12" 1.5GHz

- chenyang mSATA Mini SATA SSD to IDE 44Pin
- Transcend MSA230 128GB mSATA SSD

Opening up this computer takes some commitment. And while I was in there I also lubricated the CPU fan to fix some noise. Then booted the computer from an external #Firewire disk and restored the #Sorbert Leopard image.

Remember this show?
Think I’m installing #Debian Trixie on a #PowerMac #G4 Cube.

Today I did something fun!

On my left is my dear old 1GHz #Powerbook #G4. The best machine i've ever owned. But it's been around and seen better days.

Bought an upgrade: 1.5GHz, 1.25GB of RAM and 2x the VRAM.
Though just a CD-RW instead of a my broken DVD Burner. And the display is so much brighter, and the keys feels brand new!

Ordered an #msata to de adapter and disk just in case, but don't know if i want to use it.
