Powerbook fixing?
So i found a dead powerbook 500mhz online with a working 20gb harddrive and lcd screen with about 10-15 bad pixels.
It won't even boot though. At 150.00 it seems like an adventure in macs to see what i can do. Logic boards are about 90.00 for the laptops and replacement cdr/dvd drives about 30.00.
Am i going in way over my head here?
I've built x86 machines for years and never meet a problem some thinking couldn't fix on a hardware level.
On the otherhand i know nothing of macs.
and ...
having said that, if i bought a newer logic board (say 800mhz which still has the same form factor as 500mhz) and put it in there, what are my chances of it working?
