Scavenging

February 5th, 2006 · by map · 6 Comments

It’s time to dismantle my mom’s dead iBook.  We never did determine just what was wrong with it, so it’s possible that I could get a good HDD out of the thing.  At the very least, we’ll get a working Airport card (first gen); those are going for over $100 on eBay now.  The HDD isn’t so big so really won’t be useful for much if it is still kicking.  I do have an enclosure sitting around that I can stick it in, so I’ll have a little more space…for whatever.  Maybe I can eBay some of the other parts, too.  I suppose people may be looking for keys or all sorts of things.  One never knows.
