[iBook] A Black iBook

My trusty dual USB iBook 800 has had a few color changes. I modded it
two years ago with a bright red enamel, then decided blue was better
and repainted it. In the process, unfortunately, I used the wrong type
of stripper and destroyed the top layer of plastic. It looked
interesting, like how mud cracks, and so kept it this way until the
logic board quit and I had to send the book into Apple. To make it
look like I'd never voided a warranty I bought a new casing... it was
cheaper than just getting a whole new iBook.

Now the book is back to plain white. 

For anyone interested there's a company that repaints iBooks and other
Apple products, here's the link:
