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.

24 Years Ago Today, The TV Network G4 First Launched
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.
