Hacks and success on this list

[Rod]

Hi All!

Thanks so far to Jack at the Comet ICU website!  He has been great help so
far in providing info on blown fuses and their part numbers!

I have a number of things that I want to try out on the 2400 I have, and
just want to see what success people have had on this list (and what
pitfalls to avoid).  As I have stated before, I live in Perth Australia, so
there is no chance I can send the PB off to the US for repair (I would be
able to put a serious dent in the money required to buy a new 12" G4 PB if I
did!).  As the 2400 was never released in Australia, I figure I must be on
of a handful of people that own one here!

Anyway, here is a list of what I need to do:

1) Replace the internal 1.3gig drive with a 4gig Toshiba drive pulled from a
333Mhz Lombard.

2) Give it Cardbus compatibility.  This model is the one that has the yellow
jumper wire close to the SO-DIMM slot.

3) Fix the mouse clicker, as it is bugging me like there is no tomorrow!

4) Replace the 5amp fuse on the I/O, next to the battery terminals.


Any thoughts or pointers?  I was hoping to do the whole lot while the 2400
was apart (except maybe the cardbus hack until I know it is working).

Thanks in advance!

Rod!
