Trans International - you can find their small right side add at
www.dealmac.com. 512 MB Ram was $89

I installed an IBM 40 GB GNX (5400 RPM and 8MB cache) from them ($138 I
think) myself at the same time I did the memory upgrade. This was no simple
task but doable if you have the right torx wrenches,very small philips
screwdrivers and a pair of pliers.

If you get a drive from them - check their best deals for dealmac readers. I
almost got another 40GB drive for the same price that was 4200 RPM and 2 MB
cache by clicking through the iBook upgrade page.

With shipping 2d day air  $13 it totaled about $241. Add the cost of a 6
pack for consumption after reassembly to calm your nerves down and
celebrate.

Good Luck
Dan
